Time to Rest is oh so important... Apparently!!!

So after many weeks of slaving away, my world has suddenly hit one of those down times. The ones in which life is not depressing, it is just really slow and relaxing. Now for those who know me well, you will know that I really never slow down. It's always all systems go and nothing to really prove that slowing down is a key to longevity.

Well the last few days have been somewhat surreal. Waking up and not having things to rush off and do has taught me the importance of rest. I am learning to rest and learning to enjoy those moments. I have discovered just how important my own company is and how much I need it to Recharge by myself, because honestly, people drain me.
Just like my digital devices that I use everyday to keep me on time, organised and moving, if I'm not taking the time out to let them charge they become flat, less effective and can impact me and others as I fly through my life. It is important for me to remember that my batteries need a daily charge, that my life needs me to be ready to take up the challenges.

There is a further issue here and probably the most important. My family, Friends and God need me to be healthy, energised and ready to jump to the tasks and opportunities in life. Being Charged up and energised is important because God and people in my life need me just as much as I need them. If I am not charged and energised, I can't do what needs to be done.
