August is rightly the month when people run off to enjoy simplified days, not necessarily in exotic lands, but cooler corners. The end of summer almost always finds me in a mood. It easily can transform into a funk, reminding me of past occasions when I didn't listen to myself, and by Fall, have lost all composure. None of it by then is internal, and people around me wonder what I could be stressing about?
Running on "low batteries" seems normal to me by now. I think it contributes to not noticing the need for a vacation. The good news is, I have a week of vacation just around the corner. I may still set myself up for disappointment if I expect to get anything significant done. However, I can bump the happy-o-meter up a notch just by knowing it's a vacation day on the horizon.
When you're the captain of your destiny, it's still good to get off the ship and gather coconuts with your mates... |
