Sayonara š Iām going to be so NOT available for the next little bitĀ as I recover from ātoo much people-ingā recently. To be transparent, as much as I LOVE people š these last 2 weeks have had me in full blown āONā mode as Iāve been checking in on my people, communicating updates, giving extra time to ensure everyoneās being tended to, and going back and forth communicating on so many (too many??) platforms as everyone and their mom has hopped on the virtual bandwagon. Iām poopedā¦and honestly, Iāve been starting to feel resentful š you know when you just want to scream “LEAVE ME ALONE!!” but you know it’s really not any of the people reaching out? š¤¦ In an act of self-care, a mode of protecting my sanity, a way to prevent myself from saying anything out of irritation that I’d regret, and as an example of setting boundaries, Iām lovingly peacinā out ā I wonāt be responding to texts or any of my inboxes for my personal life for the next little while ā honestly not sure how long š¤·āāļø so if you’re reading this and you haven’t heard back from me, now you know why š just be glad I didn’t respond in my *mood*!

I know that this will absolutely rub some people the wrong way. I know there will be people who will be offended if I donāt respond. There will be people who donāt understand this and canāt fathom taking some āme timeā to unplug from the world around us.Ā Too Bad. Iām not living my life for those people. Iām living my life for God, and Iām of no use to Him if Iām not well-rested, clear of resentment, and making myself available to connect with Him. So, here we gošāāļø
.
I know everyoneās gotten into intense āconnectionā mode with all of this social distancing, and Iām going to encourage you that it is 100% okay to take time to recharge, rejuvenate, recalibrate, and say NO to responding to every single thing that comes across your (metaphorical) desk. Yep. You can do it š
Permission Granted
