Feeling productive?

Do you ever wake up and wonder what you are going to do for the day? What you are going to do to make yourself feel productive? To make the day feel... worth it? To make the day feel... how can I put it... lived? I don't want to waste my days. I want to live. I want to live and be productive. I want to do something. I want to make a difference. I want to leave an imprint and change things for the better.

But you know what else? Sometimes I just want to sleep all day. Or stay in bed. Or just stay in my pajamas and not get up and just be a lazy bum who doesn't do anything in particular. Sometimes that is being productive, isn't it? Sometimes taking a break is the most productive thing we can do. Letting the engine rest.

I'm not gonna save the world, really. And if I stay home watching 7 episodes of Grey's Anatomy with my step-mom instead of going out and joining the board of a community garden, then the world is going to be the same. There is no rush on anything. If I do something today or tomorrow, really, it is no big deal. And I can never forget balance. Because if I am always out, out, out... my scales are going to tip way to far and I am going to fall. I need to stay in too. I need to use some weekends to stay in my pajamas and do a whole lot of nothing. And guess what, I need to write some blogs about a whole lot of nothing. Where I don't proof read them, I am not gonna proof read this, and I am gonna say gonna instead of going to. And it feels good.

And guess what? I'm just gonna end the blog here.

  2. I actually did my laundry this weekend.. and the dishes. And I felt productive. I am changing the world, one dirty sink at a time. Maybe if you didn't live in Carlsbad. hahaha
