Respite Over

Yesterday was back to normal. The last few days haven’t been my normal, or even my new routine. Thanksgiving was Thursday and I didn’t work. In fact, I haven’t worked since Wednesday of last week. No work for four consecutive days. It was a great respite, but it’s over. It’s back to the grind and getting things moving forward in my chosen direction.

The main reason I stopped working for so long was a bit of a revelry or celebration. I haven’t worked consistently for another person or company in over a year. Before that stint, my employment by another was over four years. I’ve been walking in my purpose. I’ve been doing what needs to be done and during that time, committing 40 to 60 hours a week to a job would have slowed down my progress. I made a choice to pursue my purpose with vigor.

As a result, my lifestyle changed. My choice led to an inconsistent income level. My choice led to living in another country. My choice led to a lower standard of living. My choice led to a variety of stress factors and consequences I’ll be discussing at a later point. We all have to face the consequences for our choices and actions. I chose to not work and take a respite over the last few days. Now, I’m choosing work with zest once again and complete what’s been chosen for me and me alone.

Today, Tuesday, November 29, 2022, I am grateful that:

I got a chance to take a break. A little break, but a break nonetheless.

I’m executing my plan. It’s taking a bit more effort than I thought, but it’s working. I can see light at the end of the tunnel and that’s important. I’ll keep putting one foot in front of the other and drudge along this road gleefully.

I’m back on track. It’s been a tough road to tow and that’s basically been my life. I’m happy to not make comparisons since each journey is unique to each traveler.

Are you back to work?

Be Great. Be Grateful!!!
