When We Feel Tired

Today is a good day. I tried to do things one by one. There was still some stresses on which one to do first, but I managed to do one by one. Also, I could write what I was about to do. It turns out to be different but at least with some ideas on what the essential things are.

Afternoon was also busy doing things one by one. Then followed by another discussion.

But somehow I feel tired instead of happy. Perhaps it is a good thing. It reminds me that getting things done are not the ultimate goal. We won’t be happy even when we can get things done. We get things done because it is part of our calling, not our main objective. So learning how to get things done are good but not with the expectation that we will be happier because of that.

Secondly, it just reminds us that we are human. It is normal to feel tired. So when that happens, there is no need to be surprised. It only tells us that we need some rest. This will require us to let go of some worries and have the faith that we can continue again after we get some rest.

In other word, we don’t always need to work or be productive. So I need to learn to rest to find on the things I can enjoy for a while. That itself can be a stressful stuff as there are many things that we can do. Remember last week’s article. We can do what comes up in mind first.
