I'm just me, trying to be something more...

Break Time

Saturday night I went to bed late, so I gave myself a "break" from having to do my Before Bed routine.

Then Sunday night, I debated about giving myself another "break"...until I realized that the real BREAK is actually doing my routine!

When I do my Before Bed routine, it makes my morning go so much more smoothly, giving me a BREAK from running around like a chicken with my head cut off! Or sleeping until my son finally drags me out of bed with his screaming. And of course, the best break of all will be when these things that I do each evening and each morning are second-nature and it feels funny NOT to do them. {Though I must remind myself: "Focus on the journey, not the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity, but in doing it."~Greg Anderson}

I can tell I'm on that road already. Less and less do I have to look up at the road signs to make sure I'm going the right direction. I find myself remembering to turn right ahead and then make a left turn. I gotta say, I really like memorizing my "drive" to work. It makes life so much easier!

"The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are ever the same. Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the destination."~Don Williams, Jr.

Babysteps, babysteps!

"To get through the hardest journey we need take only one step at a time, but we must keep on stepping."~Chinese proverb
