Recently my nephew Peter stood at my fridge and asked me if the picture below was my weekly plan….
Peter has grown up with my attempts (sometimes success at greater levels than others) to live a life of planning and routine…
I had to smile and consider the wisdom in his question. I believe the words in this weekly plan may fit me better than the plan of structure and routine I often strive for….
In the event you can’t make out the words: Sleep In, Keep Going, all will be well, hope, trust, light a candle, be still, might as well laugh, be strong, embrace change, curse the darkness, pray, forget regret, dance, hold on, skip exercise, shopping couldn’t hurt, live the moment, have more chocolate, a bath makes everything better, know, swear, move on, sing, dare, risk, veg out, be amazing, go back to bed, rest, have chocolate, breathe…
I will need to tell Peter I considered his question and so I want to say clearly, “YES, Peter, this is my weekly plan!” (with a gym trip a day added in)
Go and live well and have fun living!
