I feel like I've been running so much lately... like I haven't had time to take a deep breath. I've been bombarded with deadlines and new ideas to put down in words. There are places to go, children to teach, lessons to go to, and school to be finished.
Like Lauren Alaina put it in one of her songs;
"Make my days pass just a little bit slower, I've been running so fast I've forgotten who I am"
I love what I do, I truly do, but... I think that it is time for a break.
Seems like everywhere I go I get new ideas and they will swirl around my brain. I will be laying in bed and my head will not stop; the stories simply continue... begging me to write them down.
And so today I decided.
I am going to take a deep breath. I will do the things I wouldn't normally do on a regular day. I will listen to music, (the playlist below) spend time with Jesus, organize my closest, take a walk, and close my eyes. and take deep. deep breaths.
I will take a break from my writing. set it aside and let the thoughts escape me for today. because I don't want to simply exist. I want to live.
