My heart's desire, my prayer, and my hope is to complete what God started and breathed in me long ago. I want to see all He has in store for my words ... even in the midst of brain fog. : > Thanks for another encouraging post, Eva.

I want sssoooooo badly to take a break and enjoy summer. I'm a teacher. That's what I'm supposed to do. But now I feel like I'm going to fall behind if I let up for just one minute. Since June 1st last year, I have been on my computer every single day except two. TWO! I keep telling myself I need to take a few days, that it will be okay.

Recover, emotionally and mentally? <br /><br />Thanks for reminding me that I do have the right--the obligation--to take care of myself in whatever ways I need to.

I allow myself a morning each month to do the thrift shops searching for treasures--and inspiration--after my chiropractic appointment. Still longing for that full day to sit down with a novel for pleasure reading. I have a stacked collection surrounding my "chair." God bless you for all your accomplishments. You've always inspired me as a writer--now perhaps I can take your permission to "rest" and run with that, too.<br />Joy!<br />KathyMiss Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10535864559101763980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2907737240492304428.post-80739644761180159322017-05-23T08:14:25.278-04:002017-05-23T08:14:25.278-04:00Right (Write!) on, Eva Marie.
