Don't Leave Relaxing For The Weekend

Welcome to Friday Eve.

Have you noticed that we who live in the good old USA pay a lot of attention to the days of the week?  Mondays are ho-hum, Wednesday is humpday, Friday is the day we all wait for.  The day that allows us to take a break from our norm for two days and then return to another ho-hum Monday when it ends.

Perhaps we need to find little breaks in our every day routines, so we are not waiting for that one magical day of the week to score a break. Usually we are let down, as the weekend never feels long enough to get the rest we feel we need.  Why?  Because we don't encounter those little breaks through the week.  We need them.  Lunch with a friend or coworker, a walk at the beach after work, a late night ferry ride to catch the stars on a Monday... anything to break up the routine and breathe a little deeper and think a little lighter.  If we can find an hour a day to do this, even when we have a busy work week, we will find we stress less, tire less, and are ready to really enjoy our weekends and make the most of them - not sleep them all away because we are on overload.

I hope you find some peace and enjoyment this week.  Don't leave it for the weekend - that's a lot to ask of two days ... start it TOday.

Be blessed!
