I suppose it’s about that time. Yet again comfy chair, water, good pup. I sit on the verge of two thoughts; did I miss something, or am I enjoying where I am and not realizing it? Unsure of where that train of thought leads I feel stranded with indecision. Or rather, stranded by indecision. The difference being, “with” entails I am making the choice to do nothing, “by” means the choices previously made previously for plans are now null and forcing me to do nothing.

Does one reassess and create new plans or does one allow restful days? If either is better than the other are there caveats to which choice should be made? Health, sanity, pain, pleasure, are any of these allowable? Does reason create opportunity or does reason limit risk?

-Health – rest allows for recovery

-Sanity – rest allows mental stability

-Pain – rest heals physical pain, but can allow the mind to wander into painful thought

-Pleasure – let’s the mind ease itself into stability, if temporary. Yet will often result in lack of rest, and potentially increased physical exertion making physical pain a concern.

(Now I want to learn to juggle, funny that would be; Them: “Why did you learn to juggle?” Me: “I tried to rationalize a decision and the words in the list looked like they should be juggled and I didn’t know how to yet.” Forgive the tangent, needed to make myself smile.)

Now that I’m thinking about juggling, maybe it’s about time to wrap up. Losing my focus on the task at hand, for the moment the priority will be utilizing the time given through happenstance and other canceled plans to prepare for future recovery efforts. That sounds rational and sane to me. Your thoughts may vary, please feel free to discuss and contemplate your own healing.
