Stress

Today was stressful.
We got behind in work and everyone was frustrated.
A co-worker of mine wanted to go to a yoga class after work because she felt like she was living to work. She wanted to do something other than work and sleep.
Being behind we didn't finish on time.
While we were cleaning up Mollie declared that she didn't have to go tonight. That it wasn't that important.
And I believe wholeheartedly my response.
"No it is important! You need to have something for yourself, not just work."

Ladies and Gentleman work is important. But so is living. If we forget to live we are no more than robots. If you find yourself becoming mechanical find something little to bring you back to life. It doesn't have to be much. Go running. Read. Go on a walk. Play a board game with a loved one. It is the little things that count.
