Sheer and utter exhaustion can be happiness

Welcome to my day-in-the-life introspective 'I don't know what the heck is happening to my body or life or soul.' I shuppose that today is a theme day for just letting go and taking good care of whatever it is that may be happening inside me. Though I suspect most of you won't know what it feels to live without a thyroid or any trace of the corresponding hormones, I'd imagine you might be able to loosely feel it like some riddled collection of staying up til mid-afternoon following an all nighter where you've had no coffee to speak of.

If you feel restlessness then feel it... when you feel tired either close your eyes or take a cat nap or do something about it rather that just trying to convince yourself that you must make it through to the end without stopping. Listen to your body because it's only trying to give you hints and feedback on what might be wrong or how you can support in it's efforts to help you feel better. Sheesh! We have a miraculous wonderful world of medications and energy drinks and caffeine laced thirst quenchers who have all been made to help us delude ourselves into thinking that we are taking better care of ourselves than most of us actually are in fact doing right now-- this very minute in fact... I'm waiting for a show of hands here... how many of you can honestly say that you've been taking better care of yourself than what life was like when let's say: Mom or Dad was running the show? Yah, I thought so. Well, now I'm just a little bit annoyed with y'all for not having the balls or brains or whatever your excuse is going to be this time-- wait a minute: TIME! That's it, isn't it?

Make TIME... go be a super hero! Save time! Make time! Take time away from the big bade ugly evil villains and save yourself before someone else has to do it for you!

N' that's how I'm surviving... MDB
