Bringing Joy into Our Lives

“Enjoy your day”… What does that mean?

I am on the journey of winding down my world for the summer. This is uncommon for me. Being self-employed, I tend to always be working on the next project, my back-brain always engaged, always ready to launch the next thing.

But something inside of me said that I needed to breathe a bit, consolidate, let go of some things that I’ve always done, and see what new things want to be born. However, I’m finding it strangely harder than I thought. Maybe because my work also feels like a calling, it’s like I’m having a hard time leaving my Self to the side so I can breathe.

And so, part of my journey is to imagine what my days could look like. I have 8 weeks of a very different life… what would be my ideal time with me?

While journalling in a lovely café this morning (definitely one of my joys), the idea of “enjoying this time for me” appeared on the page.

Enjoy. En-joy. What does this really mean?

Intellectually, I think that I should enjoy my time no matter what I’m doing. SHOULD ENJOY. Hmmmm.

Emotionally, I want to relax so that I can enjoy my time… but maybe this is just a reflection of some difficult emotional times around me lately and I’m just emotionally tired.
