Coffee Date?

hello dreamers.

i’m so thankful it’s friday. sorry that i’ve been MIA this week, it has just been one crazy week (or maybe a string of crazy weeks all in a row…)

but coffee makes everything better. So let’s have a coffee date.

If we were having coffee I would tell you that I’m finally feeling “normal” after a week of feeling down and out. I feel like my soul is craving something… but not quite sure what. I fought some serious self doubt this week. Today I finally started feeling like I was winning.

If we were having coffee I would tell you that my workout and diet have been a total mess. I decided that even though I didn’t feel like it I went for a 2 mile jog on Wednesday, hoping it would help me out of my funk, but it ended up making me want to cry because every step felt so hard. I was mentally defeated. I went to the gym last night to do some strength training and actually felt better after that.

If we were having coffee I would beg you to stay longer, because I don’t have these good soul-nourishing talks very often. I would complain about being caught up in the day to day of life and beat myself up for not enjoying life in the moment. I would ramble about all the things I wish I had time to do, ask you if you wanted to do my school work for me, and talk about all my big dreams.

If we were having coffee I would ask you for advice on how to find balance. I know life never really gets easier, I just wish I knew how to be better at it. I would ask you for encouragement and smiles and a big hug. I would thank you profusely for making time to spend with me.

Thanks for coffee.

How was your week?

    Sorry you’ve been feeling blah! I usually got out & walk/jog/bike at least 3 times a week, but this week hasn’t been great for me either. I can relate! 🙂

    Stopping by from Alissa’s coffee date link up! Happy Friday!
