Live Life Lovingly!

Strung ?

1 Comment

A stringed existence ?

While poetically speaking, or at theoretical physics, all of life is interconnected

Have you felt like you are strained, exhausted to the point of  emptiness?

Have you reached a point of burnout with visible signs of overwhelm?

Have you sensed the strong pull from various directions?

Some from strings you have given yourself a connection to.

Some of which, you are innately  connected since you were born.

Do you feel the pressure and need to resist some strings

And have you noticed how you are managing it all? 

Have you been able to live your life at all or  just simply existing  or day to another?

Time for some thought in this direction…

Sharing a thoughtworthy quote  from my readings this morning.

“We have a tendency to put ourselves last. We concentrate on everything else; work, friends, family, home issues, but we ignore the deeper stuff until it becomes so compressed that it can explode.”
Cecelia Ahem

I ❤️ it  for it is a great reminder  for all of us.

Self care needs to be considered as a priority practice rather than just a once in a while thing you do.

If we truly care to check in,  we can catch the many signs &  signals through which our body is already  communicating to us.. And how we are dealing with it all.

While being connected is great, we all need some space for reflection. A space to grow from awe and wonder.

A space for stillness in spite of the movements.

Some  moments to gather ourselves from where we are to reset ourselves.

    iNDeeD Dear Savvy
    Too Many ‘Strings’ Attached

    When And WHeRe and How
    Human Beings are Evolved to

    Focus on One Detailed Task to
    Fully Grasp It While Having Enough
    Attention Span to Scan the Horizon for

    Potential Predators
    Ending Our Lives

    Or in the Case
    of Being Attached
    to a 6 Inch Screen
    Distracted Driving a
    Car Not Seeing the Car
    Coming at Us in the Same Lane

    True a Metal Predator Surely Worthy
    of Our Focus and Attention Span to Survive

    Yet This Is a ‘Local’ Distraction What About All the
    Abstract Constructs Bringing Worry to Us For What
    We Create of Past Regrets and Future Anxieties too

    Like All the Deadlines
    Multi-Tasking Does

    Bring Yes All
    The Stress
    Overwhelming
    That Will Be in terms
    of Deleterious Stress Hormones
    Slowly Bringing Our Bodily Systems Down

    iNDeeD in the Working Years Strings Attached
    to My Focus and Attention Span continued to cumulatively
    Increase until there was no place of Sanctity to Just Focus on one Task

    While Having Room Enough to At Least Pay Attention to the Feedback From

    my Body
    To Remove
    Myself then

    From what
    was slowly
    Killing Me
    From the Inside Out

    ThiS WaY With No Place
    Seemingly then to Escape

    Yet True When ‘Humpty
    Dumpty’ ‘Falls Off This Wall’

    ‘All the Kings Men and Horse’s’
    Won’t Have What it takes to put
    All the Pieces Broken of Humpty Back together

    Again Yes It Could take Literally Years to Recover and
    Do This True in my case 66 Months Yet When We Do

    If We Can
    And Will

    We Don’t Wrap
    Ourself In Such
    A Ball of Strings

    Again That We Suffocate
    And No Longer BREaTHE Free Humanity

    True Dear Savvy i Do Not Yet Also True
    Some Folks Just Get Trapped in the Labyrinth
    Of Modernity and Never During This Life Find A Way Out

    Or Even Understand
    Where They Have
    Come to Be

    And

    Why

    Indeed
    Distraction
    Enough Distraction
    Will take Us Out of ‘The Human Place’…

    From Making it too Much of a ‘Human Race’

    to
    NoWHeRE..:)
