Busy or Full?
I had a conversation with a friend of mine recently about using the word busy or the word full to describe all of the things we do in a day. Many of us are feeling like there is little time in a day to accomplish everything we would like to. I often hear people describing their day(s) as “busy, busy, busy” or “crazy busy.”
The word I prefer to use is full. Words have sounds, emotions, memories and meaning attached to them. When I say to myself in the morning,”I have a full day today,” I feel confident that all of it is manageable. If I say to myself in the morning, “I have a crazy busy day today,” I am already in a state of panic.
Living a fast paced life is certainly challenging. Sometimes just becoming more aware of how we use words like busy and full can make a difference between an endless list of tasks and masterfully handling our day.
I wish you masterful days.
Love and harmony,
Sharon
