My husband will call or email me sometime during the day most days. Yesterday he asked how I was doing and I just told him I was tired but otherwise okay. Well, he proceeded to mumble something about me always being tired.
I guess I can’t lie to myself and tell myself I am not tired because I am. It’s a pretty tough job to take care of our family, home, and also workand go to school. Honestly, I am tired. However, I have a new goal. My goal is to tell him, and myself, that I am doing just fine. In all seriousness I am doing just fine. I have a wonderful husband, great kids, we are healthy, we have a home, insurance, jobs, education, transportation, Internet, games, movies, books, clothes…we have SO MUCH! So what if I am tired! I am blessed. All that I need are the basics and God gives me so much more. If all I have put on my plate, or the job that God has called me to do, leaves me tired then good! I am glad to be tired because it means I am blessed to have everything I have. I am more tired of being a winey baby and overweight than I am physically tired.
I am not tired. I am blessed.
