Things can be overwhelming especially when there is a lot on our plate. Sometimes having a friend, a buddy, or a ‘koach’ gets us past the feeling of overwhelm and allows us to move forward. A poem:
I have so much to do
I don’t know where to start
My head swims, my thoughts are everywhere
The list is endless. Cross off one thing and add three more
I am torn in many directions
Constantly juggling balls one will soon fall on my head
I want to head back to bed
But the show must go on
Take a step back
Take a deep breath
Count to ten. And count again
Make a plan
One step at a time
Prioritize. Call in reinforcements. Breathe again
She comes with a smile
Guides me through
The clouds dissipate, the sun shines again
I can breathe. I can do this
I feel empowered
Items checked off the list
Serenity takes over
I can do this
Thanks for reading. Wishing everyone a peaceful week.
