Leaning is okay

In a society that dictates that you must go-go-go...it's good to remember that resting is okay. Of course, there can be too much resting and "when you rest too much, you rust" may become likely.

Finding that healthy balance of the harmony of one's soul and the obligations of one's soul can be tricky. While achieving these two important life lessons it can get overwhelming at times. When that happens it is perfectly okay to stop and lean on your higher power. 

You are not a machine. You are an imperfect being just like everyone else. And, just like everyone else, you can't make it through life on your own. Everyone needs someone to lean on. Everyone needs a higher power to lean on. It is impossible to go it alone.

Listen to your soul's cue's. There is a huge difference between "I need sleep" tired, and "my soul is tired" tired. If getting a solid night's sleep bounces you back, you were tired. If getting a solid night's sleep doesn't bounce you back, your soul is giving you a sign to slow down. Sleep is when we rejuvenate, if that doesn't happen, you need more time to rest. If you don't take that time, the lack of resting will catch up with you and take you down.

Nap. Sit quietly in nature. Do a good deed. Or anything else that brings you peace. This is the rest that the soul craves. <3
