The break was welcome. No clocking in, and working according to someone else’s requirements. Lounging and wearing sweats, while sipping coffee.. No obligations but to flow as the energy leads.
The smiling faces of family, and the one who has my heart. Priceless time spent with each. It was a pleasant peace… An instant refresh… A moment of tap out from the stressing constraints of tasks needing to be met.
The pressure I feel now comes from the pending “see you next times” and those kisses you don’t know if, and when you’ll be ever to deliver again. A heavy nudge of not wanting to make tracks on the highway for hours and hours. But hey, I’m grateful. These are the moments of our lives.
