REST

What are the most important things needed to live a good life?

Rest is without a doubt one of the most important things needed to live a good life. Without it we don’t have the ability to actually LIVE life. Instead we may find ourselves too exhausted or burnt out to actually enjoy the things, people, & places we love.

Personally, I find it really easy to slip into the work mode or what I like to call “being productive mode”. While it would be super easy to say that it could be attributed to the way I grew up, I think the more accurate response is that for a long time I didn’t KNOW how to be. That’s right- Just be.

I would find myself perusing my surroundings searching for something to do because I didn’t know HOW to be with myself. It took some getting used to but I can honestly say I love being by myself.

Don’t get me wrong! I am looking forward to meeting my spouse, but I’ve learned the art of being content with me. Sometimes that means I’m being content to be uncomfortable. Why? Because it taught me about me, and at gee end of the day- we are responsible for our decisions.
