How appropriate it is to fall.
Today I woke up with a big list of tasks. However, I spent the morning curled up with a good book, heavy dress, and a large cup of hot coffee. I just wanted to enjoy life today, to mark the arrival of this season. I wanted to curl up in the first day of autumn, the season Cozy.
It is now mid-afternoon on the first day of autumn, and my task list is not. My to-do list is full of life draining tasks right now: Clean my inbox. Write the new security product marketing. Change training manual.Update forms for the client. All the "shackles on the" life-draining-Just-survivin 'responsible person-in-society to do things list.
It will not be so forever. I am well on my way on a road to living the life I am meant to live. But today, the to-do list is not much life.
So now I rebel. I want life today, this first day of autumn. And is not it ironic? Fall is the life cycle leading to death. Yet I find it so exhilarating.I mean make-me-want-to-burst-out-of-my-skin-I'm waving this kind of life that gives. And today I choose life giving activities: logging in Starbucks I indulge in a latte Chai Pumpkin Pumpkin Scone. Reading a book on finding your destiny. Building relationships through social media with incredible people. Joining a group life coaching colleagues for the support group and mentoring. Bring a friend a gift. Send a friend a gift. Taking my dogs for a walk. Consciously choosing peace.
Not every day can be just that. Some days, require action on the list, which gives life or not. But not today. Not the First Day of Fall.
