Duty….

When we find time to breathe, to get off the treadmill, to escape the rat race, to be alone and at one with ourselves, we find we can love ourselves more…..

“The only constant in life is change”

Heraclitus

Duty

There is a freedom in letting go

And the unfurling of knots and grip, and sinew, though

at first feels wrong, strange and painful, soon becomes

loose, light and lethargic.

Yet in that looseness, a new strength is constructed,

and in no length of time consciousness truly awakens,

and brings fresh breath to each cell, each nerve, each muscle

as though, it has been reborn, rebooted and realigned to

its own self,

to embrace, to understand and accept, that therein lies

the true reality of duty and obligation.

To first, clutch oneself, love inwardly, one’s own mind and body,

for everything else is just weight…..

Hi, I am a 50 something stay at home mother, grandmother and daughter of elderly (ish) parents. I do however, volunteer twice a week in a charity shop, mind grand children on occasion and of course do any other running around required by extended family. Prior to being a stay at home mum, I have worked at many different jobs, changed career a few times and gathered lots of stories along the way, which I hope you will enjoy as we begin our new relationship. I hope I will be able to entertain, engage and enlighten you, if only a small bit. Life is short, so lets have some fun. Looking forward to getting up and running (metaphorically speaking of course) as I have no intention of running anywhere! Perish the thought!! Thanks for stopping by, Carrie x
