Heart at Leisure

You know those mornings where your alarm doesn’t go off, and you are awakened with an urgent call? When you resolve that issue, only to discover that you are missing a meeting you didn’t even know was taking place?

How about the days where everything is going smoothly, but you are somehow stuck? When you are dry, when you unable to produce anything creative?

I do.

I have seldom been busier and I love everything that I do!  But my reservoir of courage and creativity lasts only so long before I need a refill.  Sometimes, even this colorful, satisfying, demanding work that I do just needs to stop for a little while.

Just long enough for me to come away refreshed.
