Day #72 in A Year of Positivity

“It’s okay to take a break from the world. Sometimes you just need it.” – Unknown

Good evening, everyone, and welcome to Day #72 in A Year of Positivity! Today’s quote is a little different from what I normally do in quotes of positivity. I don’t know who the true source is of this quote, though I came upon it in what couldn’t have been a more perfect time, and it made me feel so much better. The quote is, “It’s okay to take a break from the world. Sometimes you just need it.”

Today was such a crazy day for me. Nothing seemed to go right for me at work, and the same for here at home as well. Every little thing annoyed me from a super tiny pest of a fly hovering over my computer screens to everything else needing to be done all at once with no break in-between. The stress just kept piling up and literally made me want to scream.

On a day like today, that’s where this quote comes into play. When the stress piles on so much like this, it is very important to recognize those stress levels and find a way to de-stress. If you don’t, then the stress will come to a full explosion after being bottled for so long. That’s why it’s okay to take a break from the world. Sometimes you need it to take care of you. You are your most important asset.

So, if you find yourself in the kind of day that I had today, go ahead and give yourself that little break. You have to take care of you before you can take care of anything or anyone else. Take a break, breathe, and let peace wash away the stress.
