As I allowed myself to get more busy in the last two weeks and for other things to encroach upon my support system pieces, I found two things to be true:
First, my resilience, energy, and moments of joy began to decline.
Then, my support system pieces began to feel like another chore among a long list of chores.
I must make enough room to allow the support system to be the foundation upon which all else stands. When it becomes another chore I must force myself to do, I have lost sight of the point of the whole thing.
Do you ever feel like your life is so "full" that the idea of adding anything else to it (even if the thing might be theoretically supportive), feels like a burden or a chore, rather than something that may bring you joy or relief?
