Put aside some time for 'YOU' in Today's Busy World

 I got a lovely friend who is always very busy. She loves to serve others, yes, even neglecting herself. She under gone an emergency surgery with anaesthesia. Though the surgery was simple she was in the hospital for 16 hours. I visited her the next day of surgery. I was surprised to find her busy with arranging her home to welcome her daughter and family in the evening, which was a prefixed programme. She was doing the work in a very positive and happy mood. Being a close friend of her, I also started helping , we finished the task before time and had a chat and hot coffee together. She was having pain around the area where the procedure did and saying, 'this is not a problem for me, I want everything to be Ok with my girl when she comes to me.' What she did is great and appreciable? I just suggested her to have 'her own time' which she welcomed wholeheartedly.
      Don't you think she need, ' her own time'. Yes of course she need. This is something special for 'YOU'. Who is the most important person in your life? Nobody else it is 'YOU.' You have to be physically and emotionally fit to take care of your loved ones. Self nurturing is essential for good physical and emotional health. Always find time to keep a positive mind set when tasks are piling up,
and also make genuine, good quality 'me time.' Go for a walk/jogging for physical fitness, enjoying fresh air and beautiful people around. Take half an hour daily to get back to the silence and stillness within. Practice daily meditation for a stipulated time which helps introspection. Regular meditation improves your ability to focus and think clearly. Meditations cultivate in us the ability to sense and care for our natural energy, we are able to live life with greater awareness and confidence.
       It's a choice whether to choose or not. All it requires is a commitment to just putting aside some time for the most important person in your life that's 'YOU'.
