Hello Monday, y’all! I certainly wish it was still the weekend because like always, I am not 100% ready for the week to return! I had planned to work on a few posts and put the finishing touches on my article for the writing competition, but I did not because I had zero energy. I would prefer to be able to be at 100% anytime I write anything, especially for y’all to read, as I do not want to waste your time. I am not good at taking a break from everything and just relaxing without feeling a need to accomplish something. This also includes sleeping in or at least taking a nap, which I did manage to do on Saturday! Who would have thought that these things would help physically and mentally? I never enjoy the rain when I have to work, but it rained all day Saturday and was a little chilly. The nasty weather gave me an excuse to do nothing, and it was amazing!

Even though I would love one more weekend day, it is not an option, and we must start the need week. Many times in our lives because of doing the same old thing, just a different day, we may begin to feel stagnant in life! Some tend to feel like their knowledge is high enough and they do not need to try to increase their knowledge further, but this is not true. Learning can be an amazing thing and even exciting. Too many do just enough to survive and make it through each day, but if we think about it, there is always something else we can do. Maybe we can offer to help someone we know is struggling, which could make a tremendous difference in their life. It is NOT about doing something to help another person to get recognition but to do what is right. Humanity and kindness have taken the back burner with so much, but I think it is past time to bring these important things back to life!

On the weekends, do you ever take a break from reality and get lost in something else? Maybe you get lost in a movie you have always enjoyed or maybe watch reruns of your favorite shows. I think most Lifetime movies are relatively the same and just nonsense dramas. Almost everything Lifetime movie I have ever watched helped put me to sleep, which was great on Saturday! Most Sundays, I will watch reruns of Law & Order Special Victims Unit. I think I have seen every episode of this show at least three times, but I enjoy them because it is the only time we can see what “justice” is supposed to mean!

Thank you for visiting my site today. I hope you enjoyed what I have shared and the quote offered you a little motivation to begin the week. Of course, Mondays are not the most exciting day of the week, but we can hope to discover some new and amazing opportunities! I am looking forward to reading your comments and I will respond as quickly as I can. Please never forget that I am always sending y’all LOTS of love, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!

Always, Alyssa
