On we go!

Let's be clear.  It is only the third day of the year and I am exhausted!  Commitment was the word I chose to work with for the three hundred and sixty-five days of 2012.  After three of those days the three hundred and sixty-two left are looking iffy.  Committing to oneself takes a huge amount of work.  There is the physical to attend to:  nutrition, grooming, remembering to take my old people meds, finding the correct shoes for the outfit of the day etc.  Oh, and where and when am I going to start exercising? The emotional and spiritual realm must not be forgotten either;  prayer, talking with friends, playing the dogs, writing, and quilting. When I have attended to all the needs of my being, it is time to go to work!  I need to show up and be present.  Occasionally I am required to think profound thoughts,  to dispense wisdom, create innovative material, and walk with people through the ups and downs of their living. No wonder I am tired.   Good thing tomorrow is another day and another chance to get it right.  Three hundred sixty-two and counting!
