A Little Less, A Little More

This week I've caught myself in the "hard work is best" mode, scrunching all my dreams, interests and aspirations into one goal: complete as many tasks as possible! Of course this causes me stress.

Maybe we all do this, and maybe that's okay. But also we need to move, circulate, and be a little whimsical. Really, do our to-do lists care if we get a few or a million things done? Do our lives improve or decline? My cat knew the answer.

She was always trying to teach me things. One lesson, if you'll permit my clunky translation, was this:  Chill out!

So maybe, occasionally, we busy people can leave our offices or our living rooms for a few minutes, and do things differently? We can wander, do some doodly, nonsensical activity that doesn't involve rushing or achievement or logic. I think it'll work.

May your day be lovely, chilled-out and less to-do listy!
