“You have a responsibility to… ” What does this mean? There is a part of you that knows that even though you may want to sit without moving, there are things for you to do. Do you know that you are both human and the soul? With each of these aspects come certain responsibilities. The soul will not cajole or wheedle. It simply imbues the human aspect of you with a knowing of what is best. The human has shoulds and have to’s. Follow the soul’s nudges, for it knows the responsibility of caring for each other and making the most of your time in a human body. The rest will fall into place.
You are so very loved.
Thank you for this. The one thing I struggle with is keeping up with everything. Now that I’m divorced and working, so many household tasks have gone unaccomplished. The other day I looked on here, seeing if anything was for me, and I kind of felt bad, thinking, “no, these messages are for people who are doing better than me right now”.
I do a lot at work now, burning over 4K calories a day, my transit is my bike, and when I get home I just want to rest. It’s not long before I have to get ready for bed and prepare for the next day. I know I spend too much time watching shows, but it’s nostalgic and reminds me of being a kid with my Grandma.
I feel like I’ve been resting too much at home, but at the same time I feel like I’m totally overworked. I get minimum wage for my position, but I want to make things better so I work very hard. Leaves me exhausted when I finally get home. But I need to learn there’s still work to be done at home and I can’t just dilly dally all night long. That’s how my Grandma did things, but her house was a mess, and so is mine right now. Funny thing is this, I’m one of the happiest people I know, and my Grandma was the most loving person I knew. But we both share the habit of procrastinating self care. I regularly just give people things I’ve bought because I know it’ll help them more than me. And my Grandma never asked for something without repaying it. One time we borrowed a few eggs out of a dozen and the neighbor refused to take a dollar for it, so my grandma told me to stick it in the carton when I gave it back! Hahahah. We were dirt poor, but she never accepted a handout, always giving back to people who helped her. Sorry I went off on a tangent, but I just wanted to share that with ya. I’ve never known anyone like my Grandma and I wanna be like here, and more if I can :)
That’s cool Bailee. Glad you spoke up! Grandmas are often very trippy folks! Glad you enjoyed yours regardless of “messes”. Enjoying each other truly must have been the more important thing to do.
