It’s Thursday of what is turning out to be a very long week. The path of least resistance is pretty darn appealing right now.
So, instead of actually writing something that requires thought and effort, here’s a pretty picture to remind you to schedule yourself for some rest or adventure or whatever it is you need this weekend. It’s a long holiday weekend for many of us. Try not to waste it all on yard work and Netflix. Instead spend time doing the things that make your heart and mind truly happy.
I really wish I had a pep talk in me today but I’m running low on pep. Just remember that self care is not an indulgence and it is not selfish. It’s a form of self preservation and you owe yourself that much.
So, go forth and take care of yourselves, friends. We will resume our trip through North Carolina next time.
Make the Journey Fun 
Brandi, I just love “seeing” things through your eyes, “hearing” about places I never knew existed, and “feeling” the life experiences that you share! You are a very talented photographer and writer, young lady. You have provided so many pep talks for your readers. Maybe it’s time for YOUR pep talk. Take care, and I hope that your heart is filled with joy this weekend.
Thank you Christine! It’s so good to hear from you and your pep talk has made my day!
Do take care. I’m sure you know what you need. …
I’m trying. Thank you!!
A beautiful, refreshing photo. I hope you find time for self care this weekend ❤
Fingers crossed. I’m glad you like the photo!
Have a wonderful weekend, Brandi!
