Beautiful, Aimee!!! Burnout is definitely there at times, but I try to keep my live simple now. When I had three girls to run with all the time, truly would get burnout. Sometimes I would think, I cant do this anymore. We keep going because we have too. I always tried to do all I could for my girls, but it was hard definitely burnout. We survive and move on!!!

Brilliant poem Aimee . I may be looking at it very simplistically but I think the trick is to recognise when you’re getting to that point where enough is enough and to stop and take stock with a step back. I don’t meditate as such but I do go into deep thinking and in the end I will ultimately feel better. You really do know how to put words together 🤗

I try not to go there. Anxiety is hovered over by circumstances. I don’t let circumstances have a foothold. There is always a hole to look through circumstances. I look to the hills where my help comes from. Praying and meditation on the word of God gives me the peace from the anxious moments.

Why when I read your poem Aimée, I am so touched. Every word and every sentence resonates deeply in my heart. I know that exhaustion can take us away from all desire, from all that we love to do. Going back to the simple little things in life helps me “get my head above water”. You write admirably well, I am impressed. I wish you a good weekend read your

Very good Aimee!! I think we have all experienced burn out in one way or another. I had burn out and it affected my health and my doctor took me off work for 2 months. 5 months later, I changed jobs and went from working 5 days a week to working 3 days. Mediation helped turn my situation around and I still mediate twice daily and it helps keep me grounded and focused so I don’t burn out again!

I was just thinking of you tonight before you posted your poem, thinking we hadn’t heard from you in a while. I missed your work.

Good job!!

Yes - my career as a nurse. I discovered I was not an effective team player working in a required team environment & I began hating to go to work so I retired.

Aimee, I admire you ability to express yourself with the written word.
