Running on Empty

Sometimes we simply just run out. Of time, of energy, of whatever it is that we need to keep going. I went on a trip with teenagers this weekend & as can be expected came home exhausted. I fell down & the bed & before I knew it, had passed out into sleep. Obviously, I had run out of physical energy & a little shuteye helped revive me. How do we replenish depleted resources? What can jazz up our hearts, our souls, our spirits? A planned schedule, a caring word, a kind thought, doing for others, being needed in a healthy way - all add deposits to our depleted banks. It's in the giving as well as the receiving that each new credit is added. I encourage you to think of ways to keep your tank from getting too close to the red zone. Your "engine" will run much better, & you will too!
