Sitting here in my room...

So, I'm sitting here in my room, with no plan or agenda for the day... and while many would kill for such a day, I'm not so enthused. A few days ago, I had a mild meltdown because I felt like the absence of an immediate, regular task somehow meant that I'd missed an opportunity or something. Life is too short to waste time, and while r & r are critical to a healthy lifestyle, too much r & r is detrimental to progress and success. After prayer, reflection, and conversations with my friends, I am slowly but surely beginning to embrace this time. I know that in a few weeks when school starts, I will have no shortage of things to do and a break will not be an option again for at least a year. So, until then, I'm taking deep breaths and soaking in the sun. Hopefully, coming up for air is what I am supposed to be doing right now...
