Sometimes
I get so busy
making sure everyone
has what they need
making sure everything
gets done as it should
making sure everywhere
has been shopped or cleaned
that I forget to
STOP.
And I forget to
BE
making sure
I take care
of everyday me

Too many things to read
Too many words to absorb
Too many things to write
Too many words to express
Too many things to do
Too many hopes to fulfill
Too many things to say
Too many people to help
Too many things to achieve
Too many resolutions to realize
Too many expectations.
Who puts all this on me?
How did I get to this place?
Who is responsible?
How can it be fixed?
Who must take action?
Oh, Me.
All me.
So in one moment
with one choice
I can hit “Delete”
I can say “No”
I can throw them away
and change all the expectations.

Today
I will not feel pressured
to DO anything
Today
I will work on just being
I will work on just relaxing
and that’s ok –
in fact, it’s perfect
Why do I find myself in judgment when I’m not “being productive”?
