Fatigue is a welcome sign of time long past in pursuit of ways to occupy oneself in body, mind and spirit. And whilst this busyness may not have been the most productive, something indicates the need to rest and lie low for awhile.

Balance is the key to all that constitutes one’s life, and if on odd occasions one has over used one’s mind, or physically endured a good deal more than energies would permit, then the offset to all of this is time spent horizontal, flat.

So take all signs of tiredness as indications to slow down. Recuperate and gain a new perspective, look within and realise that time must be divided between the doing and the being simply present in the now.

And all such signs and symptoms of a like nature are in fact messages and signals that one needs to heed if one has plans to live a life of healthy pursuit, and long endure to ripe old age complete with faculties alert and functioning all the same.

One cannot afford to run oneself into the ground, or keep from centered focus about just what it means to be so proud of one’s own temple, a vessel pure and charged for life, self-sustaining, vital and enthused with pulsing blood.

Take a rest from daily plans, of routine mindlessly performed. Embrace a newfound love of simply being. And informed with one’s own knowledge of self, discovered anew, much can be accomplished with this wider view. And it will be surprising just how much more will be achieved when time is taken out of life, to be so freed.
