Back To Work

Vacation was good for me, even though all I did was work at home. Getting away from my job for those few days helps me to step back and see that there is another side of life where the only demands are the ones I place on myself. I'd love to visit that side more often, and I wondered if that's what it's like being retired, or being independently wealthy, or living off the government. Seeing that my lottery ticket gave me no cause for rejoicing, I'll just have to wait until my next vacation to find those precious moments of freedom, so sparsely disbursed throughout the drudge of the work year. Until then I'll try to remind myself that, when I get too boggged down, there are those days coming again if I can just keep putting one foot in front of the other.
