Ticking Boxes

Welcome! Come on in..today we are going to reflect upon those dry & parched times when life takes on a same old, same old feel.

Where going through the motions of life is exhausting.

A few years ago, a young Mama I knew commented that she felt like she was just ticking boxes in her life…

She had three young children in that crazy busyness of parenting.

I totally understood, I remember going through that season in my life with young children.

But at the time I was also feeling similar & I was at the stage in life where my children were adults living in their own lives with their own young families.

Then just the other day, dear hubby said he felt like he was ticking boxes in life at the moment…

Ticking boxes in life will look differently for each of us 

While we all  live uniquely different lives in differing cultures, I believe we all experience this in our lives

No matter where we live or what stage of life we are at…Life at times becomes a chore!

It often happens when we are heavily laden with trying to focus upon & fulfill our adult responsibilities & feel extreme weariness.

Which starts to feel like ticking boxes on life’s never ending “To Do” list of life appointments…Why?

Because weariness suffocates the joy out of life!

What can we do?…

  1. I enjoyed this post. I can use both “restore” and “retreat.” I can feel so easily overwhelmed at times, but I am reminded that it’s okay to take some time out to refocus again. Great post, Jennifer. Thank you for sharing your wonderful post at The Crazy Little Lovebirds link party #42. ♡
