I either take things too seriously or not enough. There are times when everything appears as if it belongs on an SNL skit or other times on Law & Order. Here are just a few examples (below) of the unjust scale in my head.
TOO SERIOUS
- MY MISTAKES- The mistakes I’ve made sometimes harbor in my head much longer then anyone’s head.
- WORK- I’ve worked for most of my life and only recently have discovered the importance of some rest and relaxation (just some)
- TIME- Fear of wasting time has made even moments of relaxation restless.
NOT SERIOUS ENOUGH
- MY ACCOMPLISHMENTS- I don’t seriously contemplate what I’ve achieved in my life and as such keep moving as if nothing occurred in the past.
- G-D’S ROLE- Taking the time to figure out how each piece is forming a greater picture is something I seriously miss out on.
- POWER- I’ve only recently discovered the influence I have on others especially loved ones whether it be by words or actions.
