The Value of Doing Something

When Basement Artist is introverted out, there's value in doing something.

When Social Hurricane is anxious and nervous, there's value in doing something.

When Adored Wife is having a bad brain day, there's value in doing something.

When Graphics Magician is bored and moody, there's value in doing something.

And when I'm depressed and sluggish, there's....well, you get the idea.

There's great benefit to be had in choosing to do SOMETHING.  To get moving.  To do some little chore or some creative act.  To get some exercise.  To read a good book.  To make an encouraging phone call or text or email or tweet.  Pretty much anything, in fact.

It's hard, sometimes, to do something.  It's easier to be paralyzed by anxiety or fatigue or depression or lethargy or confusion, or boredom.

But our family often finds that it's better, far better, to face the inertia head-on and MAKE ourselves get moving.  We feel much better for it, and it helps put things in perspective.  We feel more optimistic, more in control, more on top of things.

If you're having a down time, friends, let me encourage you to do something.  God bless.
