For Today It’s Enough ☮️ ❤️

I pushed myself today. Way too much I think. Im done. I feel terrible. Huge headache and thoughts streaming on and on…

BUT I believe I have completed all I was meant to do for today. Remember not to push yo hard, we must try for balance. It’s hard. We keep trying. We learn. We make mistakes. We relearn. We rest.

No matter how you feel nor what you did or didn’t do today, I am sending you wishes of peace ☮️ and love ❤️

Goodnight ✨🌙

Your light is a miracle for me.

"BUT I believe I have completed all I was meant to do for today."

*Easier said than done comment incoming* (and I'm guilty of this myself, almost every day)

"Sometimes all you can do is your best."

But, IDK if it's my GAD or sometimes being a perfectionist that messes me up with that.

I know the quote above is good advice, but sadly I mess that one up a lot myself.

omg that’s exactly what I just said to you in a pm - that I did my best. And you’re right that’s all we can do. 😊

Sometimes it's all you can do, but *again* I tend to struggle with that one myself.

Starrlight in reply to AnxiousSilver

Yeah it IS s struggle… even if I push to do my best I end up wondering if I could have done better so then I’m caught up in worry instead of relaxation… but now I will try to rest I have not much left in me. Hope you will rest too. ❤️ 😊 🙏

Finding a balance, keeping on, making mistakes and forgiving ourselves. I hope for all those things too.

Goodnight, and sweet dreams.

"Earth angel". Somehow, your name for me cuts through the day's pain.

"Earth angel" connects me to my best self.

Wow. Seeing your name cut through the day’s pain for me too.

I prefer your verb choice. It's scary for me, but I'll try.

Right you are. Today I went outside my 5mi radius. Did 6miles!Went to downtown to take pictures of the Christmas tree 🎄 granted I did it with my fiancé at 3am. But still I'm getting behind the wheel and really it's the best time. No tourist or people to run into. Plus ample parking 😂🅿️

Then I drove back home on the highway 🛣️ Another biggie. Haven't done that in sometime.

Later on after a good rest. My fiancé and I went to Walmart. There I did not feel so great. Felt tense, hot and a little dizzy. But I muscled thru it. Probably didn't help matters that I was also hungry.

Now I'm feeling it in my neck. I just popped my neck 2x. That was from rotating it.

I need a massage, warm pj's and my scented candle 🕯️

Goodnight Starrlight ☺️

I don’t know how to describe it. I live very close to D. C. There is way too much traffic, during the beautiful seasons with nearby skyline of gorgeous leaves on trees during fall and not too far off are Great Falls water falls which are amazingly beautiful.

I get it... my therapist says it's often the case for those who had childhood trauma 😣 Remember even the littlest of Self-care helps.

So true. I just did a meditation and have had tea and I feel ok :)

How are you doing?

melbrown profile image
melbrown in reply to Starrlight

Nice 🫖 On my way to work... meditation sounds like a good plan- will have to later. I'm struggling to keep it all together, throw holidays into the mix & my mental health in general... stretch too thin.... so the usual 🤷🏼‍♀️

I hear ya! Same here. As Dolphin suggested to me, let’s take at least an hour to do just us self care … I’m planning on a face, hair, and foot mask later.

Have a good day at work!

Balance is key. You are so right. You have been so busy the last few months. Take time to smell the roses:) Give an hour a day to yourself and recharge those batteries.

Love you soup
