Worn Down


There comes a time when we realize how tired and worn down we really are. When a simple weekend just never seems like enough because you have so much you want to do but by the time Sunday night comes around, you realize you accomplished nothing.
We all get worn down once in a while, and it is at that point we need to step back and refocus ourselves. When things get to be too much, walking out should not be the answer, but sometimes there seems to be no other option. What do we do then? Take a deep breath? Some how that does not seem like enough at times. We in turn can look to those around us that we trust to give us additional guidance. The support of friends and family can go a long way as we have all discovered from time to time. So do not underestimate their willingness to be there.
What do we do when we don't get anything accomplished?? Having a screaming fit always sounds like a nice solution. Scream at the people that prohibit you from doing your job, that create more work for you because they don't hold up their end of the bargin. Scream at your roommate, your family, or the people driving really slow on the freeway. All of these sound like amazing releases of frustration but what would that really solve? Unfortunately not much because if we screamed at everyone every time we felt like it, we would all be commited to an insane asylum and would be dosed up on meds for our excurciating headaches.
So what is the solution? Is it to just relax and take it easy? I guess there is no real solution that will solve all of these problems at once. Maybe the real solution is to do it in moderation, some yelling, screaming, crying, and relaxing. It's finding the balance or happy medium that keeps us sane enough to go on about our daily lives.
