Everyday we all go through life with the normal life stresses. Normal life stresses are the daily life stresses, you know the accumulative ones: a run in your panty hose, empty tank of gas when you are running late for work, a traffic jam, a call from your child's teacher etc. we all have these. It is part of life; it's what challenges us daily.
What about that big problem? You know the one, it's the one always on your mind. The problem that rules your dreams, your sub-conscience, the problem that sneaks up on you all the time and can turn a celebration into a time of sorrow. For some it may be the loss of a loved one, for others it may be a child who has self destructive behavior, some may have unresolved issues in their love life. Whatever the problem, each of us as human beings have an unresolved issues that is always on the surface of our subconscience mind.
What we all need is a vacation from our problems. Can I get an amen? I know this is crazy talk; how can we possibly take a vacation from our problems? Wouldn't it be great if we could jet off to a tropical island and shut off the electronic devises and communications? What if we could all just lay In a hammock with a frozen drink in hand and just forget everything for a day? If you are anything like me, you do not have the financial means to do so tomorrow.
What if for just one day we took a vacation from our own mind, from our problems? We can't jet off to that tropical island but we can stop the worrying of our minds. Just for today I challenge you to take a vacation... Even if you have to work, even if you are busy planning for tomorrow, take a vacation from those thoughts. Each time you think of your problem, replace that thought with something that makes you happy. For some it may be the crash of the ocean waves, for others it may be the thin air and view from a mountain top, yet others may find an escape in recalling a good laugh with a friend. No matter your personal escape, take one today. I give you permission, now give your self permission and enjoy your day.
