When you need to get away….

I have been working hard, sometime I think to avoid feeling. I haven’t had a full day off for 21 months. It hasn’t bothered me, because by working I have kept my mind busy. But just recently I have been feeling so low on energy, not depressed more than usua, but feeling as though someone has pinched one of my two batteries!
My friend came round today, she looked at me and said “You need a holiday” She is right, sometimes you have to just allow your body to recover, allow your batteries to recharge. Do I fear stopping work will let my mind wonder to the pain….of course, but sometimes you have to feel that pain, sometimes you just have to realise that your body needs YOU to look after it – after all it looks after you 365 days a year. Don’t worry I will continue to blog…
I do agree with you on needed to take a break from the “real world” and go on vacation. That is what I am doing right now. I have flown back to California for about two weeks. I have had a few “emotional rollercoaster’s”, but for the most part I am having a great time seeing the people I have not seen in a few years. I know when I go home I will feel recharged and better about myself for facing the realities of him not being here, head on.
