Feeling exhausted or depleted this Full Moon evening? Was almost late to everything even to the airport to pickup as still looking at a clock that says 8:37 when it turned out to be 10pm. When will I ever learn to not rely on clocks that has stopped ? The flight was delayed by almost 5 hours so feeling the power of the full moon… Cursed probably for not being true to my own rituals … so luney. Need to repair, restore and renew … TLC to all.
I’m late, I’m late for
A very important date.
No time to say hello, good-bye,
I’m late, I’m late, I’m late
I’m late and when I wave,
I lose the time I save.
My fuzzy ears and whiskers
Took me too much time to shave.
I run and then I hop, hop, hop,
I wish that I could fly.
There’s danger if I dare to
Stop and here’s a reason why:
I’m over-due, I’m in a rabbit stew.
Can’t even say good-bye,
hello, I’m late, I’m late, I’m late.
~ The White Rabbit, Alice in Wonderland
I don’t know about you but my heart used to literally sink Sunday afternoons – a time of realization that the magical weekend is soon to end that tomorrow is the …”harsh” lol reality … popularly known as blue Monday or is it called black Monday now? Anyhow, the dreaded Monday (okay, it’s not that bad – joking – or am I?).
I have heard reports of not only sinking heart but knots in the stomach, tightness in the shoulders and base of the neck, uptight chest region, migraine or tension headache… that comes from just thinking about Monday and all the impending “stuff”. Or are you the lucky one who cannot wait to get back to work and relish the idea of Mondays – I have never been that lucky. In fact, I had a reunion with someone I used to work with and while she’s gotten so much higher in the corporate ladder, she spoke of intense competition and how the bar is raised even higher each time she achieved – the goal is set higher and higher – yes. Of course, it’s never enough – that’s called success. That’s great professionally but in personal life, one hopes for contentment, peace, and joy. So she looked a bit aged – I recommend some me-time (there’s no time? You are running late?) with yoga to regain some mental perspectives while doing something good for one’s own body and mind. Otherwise, your life will just pass you by. Wouldn’t that be a shame?
Running late? Even so, make the time – you are so worth it. Don’t let life pass you by.
