It’s Monday. For many of us, those two words mean just one thing: there are five days to survive to get to the weekend.
It’s like we’re wishing our lives away.
I’m certainly guilty of this. The workweek can be busy and tiring. I like my job but have a rich and fulfilling life outside of work and look forward to living it.
This week I’m committed to focusing on appreciating each day – even the long and frustrating ones. After all, we aren’t given many days in this lifetime and it’s best to not squander them wishing for another.
So, friends, I wish you the very best this day and the rest to come. Happy Monday!
Good point! When I was in high school, one of my friends said something like, “I wish it was Friday – or whatever.” Her Grandma was right there and said “Don’t wish your life away.” That has stuck with me all these years. Enjoy your day!
Wisdom from an elder! That’s terrific! Come back tomorrow to read about what happened today. It wasn’t a great day after my big proclamation. lol.
I hope you find joy in each weekday, too. I do feel blessed to be able to spend my time as I choose at this point in my life, though much of it certainly qualifies as “work”!
Ah, but you seem to love your work even when it’s hard. That’s wonderful!
Tomorrow’s story will tell you about today. It didn’t go as planned and there wasn’t much to enjoy. lol. I tried!
Not all of it! Sorry to hear you had a tough day.
Thank you. I survived the day just a little more worn for the wear. It will be ok.
Yes, let’s not wish our time away!
It’s important but most of us either forget and don’t realize that’s what they’re doing. So sad.
