don't stress out yourself too much. find time to breath freely and relax. most of the time we abuse ourselves too much to work and earn to live but could laid us to rest.
yes, life is short, dont make it shorter. let's enjoy life and make the most of it. LOVE YOURSELF, LIVE A HEALTHY LIFE AND PRACTICE HEALTHY LIFESTYLE!
Now, it's your turn to share your piece.

Hi Shibam,
So there's a suspense story in here. i hope it's not a bad one or something that you've already processed and now you're on applying the things that you've learned from that experience. anyway, whatever it is, i know you're able to handle it because everything happens for a reason and you are the right person who can handle such thing...whatever it is...whatever it is...

Thanks for the discussion.
You know what my life until a few years ago had been full of things that I had no clue of. I was living others decisions. Then I realised that life is not just that. Being slave to others thoughts only make me a vegetable. I changed my life drastically, positively. I had to be rude but no longer could I afford to live the same old slave's life. I had been privileged to have gotten the support from my parents and family. Now, am much better. Living life the way I want it to is just so fantastic! Yes, I love myself, my family my friends and try to be into healthy and mindful living. And guess what, I am loving it!

I think that family are important and so are pets. It is lovely to spend stress free time with them. Arguments are not worth it. Being happy is what counts. One way I enjoy my life is getting to travel to different countries. I have been to over fifty different countries so far in my life. Even a camping trip not far away can be an enjoyable little vacation.

Hello msfrancisco. I totally agree with you that we need to find some time to relax or entertain ourselves out of the stress from work. If we are always under stress, it will absolutely affect our limited life. So to make our life more enjoyable, we do need to have some time for ourselves to enjoy some kind of relaxation. Have fun, friend.

Hey,
That is very true, I think that most people should try and endorse a really healthy lifestyle, because if they don't they will regret it if they make it to the age where they have a type of cancer. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!

thanks for taking the time to comment. well, this made me remember a line the poem entitled "an interview with god"... it says: THEY LOSE HEALTH TO MAKE MONEY, AND THEN LOSE THEIR MONEY TO RESTORE THEIR HEALTH... THEY LIVE AS IF THEY WILL NEVER DIE AND DIE AS IF THEY HAD NEVER LIVED.
so, let's really find time for self-care, promote healthy lifestyle and a stress-free life. pamper yourself this weekend!

Hi msfrancisco,
You've just stated the obvious and that obvious is so true! Life is short!. We should make the most of what life has to offer because we never know if we'll still be here tomorrow (opps, that sounds morbid).
OK, let's dissect what you just said:
LOVE YOURSELF - oh I love myself no doubt about it. I agree, as the saying goes, you have to love yourself first before others can truly love you
LIVE A HEALTHY LIFE - I love food - rich, fatty, sweet, sinful food. If I live a healthy life would it mean staying away from them? Isn't life too short to miss these foods? LOL
PRACTICE HEALTHY LIFESTYLE - healthy lifestyle includes getting enough sleep right? Well I had a healthy lifestyle until lately, and that's after I joined myLot. Now myLot keeps me awake all night, it has changed my sleeping habits, but I'm not complaining
Nice topic

Oh yes, life is short. I am short. Everything's short. So enjoy your life to the fullest as you'll never know what will happen tomorrow. Along the way, always show appreciation to the people around us as we wont want it to be too late to be able to do it. Have a nice weekend!

hi fly001,
you're right... so many attempts to relax and be still but given the tasks to deliver and earn for a living is really tough. well, no comparing but just keep in mind to give yourself a break... you deserve it!
have a great weekend!
