Around Every Corner, Opportunity Awaits You
God said:
You may need a break from responsibility for a while. Even if your work is the dream of a lifetime, you may still need a day off from it. All of your life is your responsibility. There is something waiting for you to make happen. You don't know what. You have taken your responsibility seriously. It may mean everything to you. You may feel indispensible.
It's not that you think the world wouldn't go on without you. Of course, the world finds a way to go on without you. Perhaps it is you who can't quite get along without your work. You don't remember what a vacation is any longer because of your involvement in work. There is more to life than all work or all play.
Meanwhile, it behooves you to get along without work every now and again, particularly when you feel work hanging over you. Sometimes you need a new perspective in recognition of yourself and your identity apart from your work. Sometimes you really desire to just be yourself, even when you are unsure what being yourself means. You may wonder who you really are. Is work your I.D.?
Are you perhaps something other than work or any other title assigned to you? Perhaps you are beyond any title assigned to you or that you assign to yourself. You also exist without a title.
If your work is pounding nails, take a break from pounding nails. There is no question about it. As it is, a bell rings, and you are off to work.
