Welcome, bloggers to the world of a Marine wife, mother, and college student that loves God, running, and yoga. The past couple of weeks have been extremely difficult and this class has been almost a sort of God sent to me. As I listened to the relaxation exercise I realized that I NEVER take time out for myself until my stress becomes unbearable. Usually, that is when I relay on some serious prayer time, running, and yoga. As I am going through this time of hardship I realized that it is critical that I take the time out to just relax and enjoy life as it comes. As my body was undergoing a time and into a place of calm, love, and peace I slowly started to realize that I was missing out on the beauty of living in a peaceful place, which stems from focusing on one’s self through me time or relaxation periods on a regular basis. One of my favorite scriptures in the bible is Ecclesiastes 3:1-8. Today is the time for me to start enjoying life, learn the importance of relaxing mentally, physically, and emotionally, and to let go and let God to his will.
A Time for Everything.
1 There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
