Pause. Reflect. Refresh.

As you know, I work 40 hours a week. I very rarely ask time off and I have the same schedule almost every day. I have a routine and don't step outside my comfort zone very often, (however, I wish I would.) And even though I love all of the above, sometimes I just need to take some time and NOT do what I'm used to doing. So this past weekend, thats exactly what I did.

Friday, I went home and spent the night. It was just my brother, mom and myself but it was nice. We just chilled out. Saturday I spent the entire day at the ranch with my grandparents, parents, siblings and my boyfriend. We were outside in the sunshine and it was incredible, but very tiring, I don't know why! Sunday, I went to church (and usually I work at 3... but not this week...) This Sunday, I did absolutely nothing! I rented a movie with my boyfriend and rested. Boy, was it one of the best weekends in awhile.

Pretty much I'm saying all of this to say, sometimes, while routine is good, its even better to take a second, and pause. Just smell the roses! Do something you haven't done in awhile (which in my case was doing nothing.) Spend time with loved ones and enjoy the sunshine.
Sometimes I forget all the little things in life, and I guess I just needed a refresher. It was the kind of type of refreshment like a cold glass of lemonade on a hot summers day, it just makes you go, "Ahhhhh."

Life is busy and crazy, but don't forget to stop and take some time to enjoy life! God took a day of rest, why don't we? Food for thought :)
I'm out,
