Hold Onto Your Stuffings, People

Heb 4:12 R. Alleluia, alleluia. The word of God is living and effective, able to discern reflections and thoughts of the heart.

​

The thing about putting a lot of pressure on yourself is, sometimes it leaves a mark...figuratively, literally, philosophically - it can be a dangerous experiment.

What I mean to say is, ambition is a good thing. Being motivated to do more, be better, grow, expand; this is the stuff of champions, yes?

Well, yes, but only to a point.

Because everyone knows that applying pressure is often helpful...think, on a bleeding gash or to control water flow or to inspire someone to take a leap of faith.

But apply too much pressure and the whole cooker might just spontaneously detonate and hurtle your deep-frying Thanksgiving turkey into outer space, Capisce?

It's good to hold yourself accountable. It's great to strive for something more, especially if that involves helping the other humans, yo.

But when it's causing you hives or sleeplessness or teetering on self-destructive behavior, throttle it down a notch or two. 

Relax a little. Take a break. Stop and smell the roses once in a while because they're only in bloom for so long, you dig?

Besides, nobody wants to see your stuffings catapulting into the stratosphere.  #DontBeatYourselfUp #DontStressYourselfOut #Breathe #Pray
