Breathe

I have been so high strung lately. I've been extremely busy with school and work. So busy that I forget to just breathe. I can tell that I am out of sorts because when I'm driving, I have tunnel vision. I don't look at what is around me. I'm not used to being this way, and today I was thinking about how some people actually live like that their whole lives. Constantly being on the go may seem pretty cool and you may seem like you're on top of the world, but you are moving so fast that you are bound to trip and fall at some point. So, not that I am getting a bit used to the extreme work load of nursing classes and the difficult days of work, I am going to put more energy into having a healthier diet, excercising at least 20 minutes a day and making time to meditate each day. My meditation has gone down the drain. I am ashamed to say that. I love meditation, but I seem to have forgotten how important it is. That probably has to do with the reason I am so stressed out lately. So (Deep Breath), it's time for a change. Not so much stress. I need to take care of myself. You should too.
