Monday Melancholy

Mondays...


URGHHHH !!!

We all know the feeling, Sunday afternoon rolls around & suddenly you have a dark shadow hanging over your happiness.

You get despondent, as though an invisible force is sucking the energy right out of you and you have no ability to stop it.


BUT.

Is that really the case ??

Just as you know the feeling I am describing, you also a most likely well aware of what happens when you do something for you, something that resonates deep within your core.

For each of us it is quite different, for some it is a good book, for some it is fishing, for others a quiet walk & then there are those that love the excitement of an adventure such as rock climbing or bungee jumping.

It does not matter what it is, we know the feeling when we set aside the time to do what we REALLY want to do.

It is almost like a drug, we are overcome with happiness & joy, we wake refreshed & energetic no matter what time we need to get up, even if it is some ungodly hour in the morning & it has been a long work week.

And no matter what obstacles or negatives that occur during the day, they are not even a blip on the day. We sail through the biggest of storms and have the most AMAZING time.


So , how come we can have that feeling but struggle so much with Monday ??


It is because the despondency that we feel is from deep within our soul, it is a message that says "What are you doing with this gift called life "?!!

AND

We feel so bad because we KNOW we are not chasing our dreams.

We KNOW we have succumbed to the mind numbing monotony of the system, we KNOW we are selling ourselves short.

SO, as Monday rolls around, if you feel this way you really need to ask yourself : " What AM i doing with my Life "?

You are sacrificing time that you cannot get back for money that is replenishable.

When you look at it like that, you can see it is IMPERATIVE that you CHASE your dreams, what could be more important !!!

Chase your dreams today my friends , they are closer than you believe !!!

Create Something Today- Even If It Sucks!

How hard is it to put ourselves out there and continually move forward as entrepreneurs and creators?!  In this world of cold faced businesses, deadlines and unyielding educational frameworks, we do not seem to fit and that impacts our self-esteem massively. These are just a couple of the thoughts I had as I worked on an article for a customer, thoughts which have given birth to this blog post. I realized that the best response that the creators can mount is that they continue to CREATE!! Hell, it is vital that you do not stop! Can be just a little, doesn't have to be a lot, just don't stop!  I realized that I have been guilty of stopping my creative outlets, ceasing to listen to the whispers of my creative soul; preferring to listen to the grating shouts of the business world. How could that be so?  How could I, an online blogger, content creator and one who espouses the location independent lifestyle no less, fall so in love with the cold, grey and fac

In the Dark of Night

 Fly high oh pretty one, Wings beat strong and deep. Close as possible to the sun The dream,alive, to keep. Yet somehow, always clouds, Wrapping around and smothering. The dream it always shrouds, Always just out of reach, fighting. As tho, no matter how strong the wings, Tomorrow is just as dark and broken. Look around, no joy the dawn brings, Yet this seems to remain, hushed, unspoken. Still we fight on, as tho the tides we can turn, Who do we think we are, gods, such fools! Dreams,in our wake, as ashes, burn, As slowly our desire for life, it cools. Death, whispers, and entices, Of such release, could we just land. And still we judge, falling to its vices, Slowly we clutch death, it's warm hand. For when all is black and grey, A painless tomorrow looks bright. Death, closes in, and hear it say, Come with me, it will be alright.
