Life Is Precious - Why You Need To Relax And Appreciate It  

Posted by tiae

I don't know about you but I've found as I get older I seem to have lost the ability to relax and am always busy doing something.

My family have told me I must have a "rest" but I find it difficult. Even if I do just sit in a chair my mind doesn't switch off. There are so many things I feel I must "do".

However, this past week I have had a complete break from the computer and my normal day/night "job" and have spent it on a caravan holiday. Actually it was more of an educational trip as we were searching for further educational facilities for our autistic son when he leaves school.

Hopefully it was successful. Time will tell.

The break did me good and I came back feeling refreshed despite our caravan site being at the end of the runway for Harrier and Tornado jets. I have to say they make an impressive sight flying over at 200 feet – noisy but impressive!

However, when I turned on the computer I was faced with so many e-mails my in-box couldn't hold any more. My sense of well being soon disappeared.

Spam is a big issue these days and often it's hard to know which e-mails to read and which to ignore. The subject line is a big deciding factor or a recognisable sender's address.

Sometimes, however, I do things and can't explain why. This is one e-mail I read without really knowing what drew me to it and I think someone, somewhere is trying to tell me something.

Maybe it's a wake up call and I need to listen. Life is too short and precious to waste.

What do you think
