Energy Well Spent

"Every moment, ask yourself: 'Is this where I want to spend my precious energy?' For each yes, celebrate. For each no, adjust accordingly." ~HeatherAsh Amara

Good evening dear ones. How do you spend your energy on a daily basis? Do you use it by wasting time on frivolous arguments? Do you use it on things you see in the news? Do you spend it on those parts of life you cannot change, or on things that have nothing to do with you? Do you know what it feels like to be drained of all of that energy?

My friends, life is too short to let the world deplete you. I have been struggling with a lot as of late. I have been drained of much, and although I had sworn to myself that I would not allow the happenings of humanity take me down, I fear that it has done just that. I find myself turning away from social media, and I have gone back to being a hermit. I have turned inward, and I will remain there until I can replenish the energy I have lost. I have learned that trying to find the answers outside myself will only lead to even more energy loss.

I will continue to immerse myself in the things that bring me joy. Writing, reading, and music, to name a few, are what help me when my soul is in survival mode. So my darlings, if you find your energy has diminished, and you need a break, find what makes your soul sing. Give yourself a chance to breathe and look for what restores you and renews you. Give your heart, mind, body, and soul the chance to heal. The world will still be there when you are done. Give yourself some much deserved peace and a big helping of TLC.

Be good to yourselves, and each other my loves. Be Kind, Be Peace, and Be Love. Yesterday is past, and tomorrow isn't promised. Live and love for today. - Live - Laugh - Love - Namaste
