"I'm Recharging My Batteries"
Just Sometimes

"Sometimes --- I need to go off on my own.
I'm not sad.
I'm not angry.
I'm recharging my batteries."
We sometimes just need that five minutes
to give our minds that little bit of time
to calm our souls and refresh our bodies,
ready for the next 12 hour shift (or whatever we're working at).
How can we possibly do this during the day?
We are so busy
and (sometimes) every single minute is taken up.
However,
like we take that tablet to stop the pain,
so we must learn to give ourselves 5 minutes (more, if possible),
every single day,
to help us refresh
and 'control' our minds.
I even write it down in my diary,
"10am me-time for 10 minutes with a cuppa and biscuit,
the biscuit is optional.
Can you give yourself 15 minutes in the evening,
after dinner,
to 'just calm down'?
We're supposed to let our food go down anyway
so why not use that time
to read a favourite book,
watch a favourite programme
or even play that game you love on your phone.
Even if you do this just once a week,
the effects on your health and you mind
will be so Positive,
you'll want to do it every day.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
