We have heard the phrase that life is too short countless times. Did we also internalize this fact? Do we really know how to live it? Relax to the end, enjoy, let yourself be pampered, leave the choice to others? When we come home from work or sit on the garden, balcony, terrace, sofa … and take an hour of rest, despite the fact that the apartment looks like a bomb has fallen. And without a guilty conscience! If you’re worried about what else you should do, then this well-deserved vacation doesn’t count.
Or at least once a month we treat ourselves to a massage, sauna, dinner in a restaurant, theater, concert, drink with friends, trip, picnic – anything that pampers us, relaxes us, disconnects us from everyday life, routines. Time for yourself means not only a modern phrase, but a mandatory part of life.
I admit that I started looking at life from this side only recently. But it is never too late.

Self-care is very important. We should pamper ourselves every once in a while. Beautiful photo!
You’re right. We forget about ourselves too often. We usually become aware of this when it is too late.
I like your ideas for stuff to do at least once a month.
Thank you. I think this is the least we can do for ourselves.
Such a positive post and love the photo my friend. We all have our ups and downs. I am really trying to stay up as long as I can. 🙂
Thank you so much, dear. You are right about the ups and downs. I’m trying to pick myself up as soon as possible.
what a great question – do we live our life to the fullest we can!
I like Carol’s philosophy (both) one is smiling at everyone it may be the only smile they get that day. The other is do what we can do.
So here is a smile for you!!
Thank you, Doc. I often ask myself this question. I think we think too much about goods.
having things is a difficult issue I agree. I am working on cutting down the things in my life. I’ve gotten rid of many things. But, there is the siren’s call of new tech!
After running up against anxiety and being unable to do much but fight against my nerves for over a week I can say once I win the battle and feel better I am going to go walking at least 3 times a week and enjoy nature and the outside.
This is a great decision. Nature has often helped me solve problems.
