You've Got to Fill Your Cup!
IF NOT.... My temper runs hot, my patience is short, & my resolve wears thin. π³
ππΌ All of those things ππΌ happen when Iβm Not taking care of ME.
I will ADMIT it: Iβm NOT a good mom, a good wife, or even a good HUMAN BEING when Iβm not taking care of myself. π πΌββοΈ
I used to think that the BUSIER I was, the less I should do frivolous things. But, I SOON learned the FOLLY in that thinking. π¬
Iβve learned that if Iβm not FULL & FULFILLED, it WILL show up in my work, in my marriage, in my parenting, in my lack of inspiration & motivation. ππΌ
>> So, now, I take care of me. And, Iβm teaching Austyn how to do the same. <<
FILL YOUR CUP first & then it will RUN OVER into the lives around you. βοΈ
For me, the EASY things that fill my cup:
β’ TRUTH songs during my WORKOUTS. ππ»ββοΈ
β’ PAINTING my NAILS & doin my MAKEUP. π€·πΌββοΈ
β’ QUIET time in TRUTH STUDY every day. ππΌ
β’ WANDERING the aisles of TARGET. π―
β’ HOLDING hands w/my HOT HUBBY. π
These things may not seem big to you. And they might not be the things that would FILL you. But these are the UNPLUGGED things i can do OFTEN that fill me. π
Do you KNOW what fills your cup?! If not, FIGURE IT OUT! & then.... Whatever fills YOUR CUP, find time in EVERY single day to do it. If you feel βtoo busyβ thatβs a sign that you need to make the time ALL THE MORE... just sayin. ππΌββοΈ
