Like the ebb and flow of the tidess or the turn of the seasons my energy level is cyclic and it seems that I have hit a trough. Whereas I normally feel capable of juggling a variety of work and practice commitment I have lately been feeling overwhelmed and overworked.
But rather than causing additional suffering over it I am grateful to at least have the presence of mind to simply be aware of it and hold it with compassion. May I always cleave to kindness and compassion regardless, finding in them a true refuge and protection from harm.
