Hard Time

pro

I’m having such a hard time lately getting things done. My list is down to ‘have-to’s,’ and I’m really having trouble getting one of them accomplished each day. The reason? ‘The Voice’ and ‘____’s Got Talent.‘ Why? I’m fighting feeling down. When I sit at my computer and listen to super-talented people singing their hearts out and being appreciated by ‘experts’ and people in the audience, my heart just fills up. The sad feelings don’t have room to stay.

Yesterday I did bookkeeping – my have-to for the day. I put in my ear buds, chose a “Voice” compilation at random and did my work while my heart healed. By the time the bookkeeping was up to date, I was smiling, filled with awe at the amazing talent all around us.

I may be procrastinating on things that are waiting for my attention, but I’m a happier person for it.
