I had a plan on how I was going to run with the turtles. I was going to blog more. So I developed a plan. I decided that I would post one article and write a second article to post later. This would give me something to post on days I don't write.
You know what I'm talking about. Those days when life is just too busy. Too many irons in the fire. (It sounds like I'm branding cattle , lol) Not me, I moved away from the farm. Farm life was not my cup of tea. Life gets packed full like a suitcase when you're coing on vacation. The truth is, I have time to do whatever I want to do but I don't make time to do what I should be doing. I like that line, I'll repeat it. I have time to do whatever I want to do but i don't make time to do what I should be doing.
That line can go for so many things in my life. It could go with reading the Bible daily, praying regularly, spending time with Jesus, playing with kids, visiting parents, or etc. That list can go on and on. All of those things are good things , some are great things, and other things are time killers.
I know all about time killers. Swiping on my cell phone is a big one for me. I know , I'm not the only one. The social platforms (sometimes, not always) do a great job of feeding me the stuff I like. I get a variety of sports clips, motivational speeches, sermons, comedians, and music. All in small bite size chunks. Cut up to the perfect size for me. (just like my Mom used to cut up meat for me when I was a kid.) Wasn't that great. If my wife wanted to cut up my steak for me, I would sure appreciate it. Hint! Hint!
Another thing I was going to do was to write a title and a couple sentences for the next blog. Here is an example I am going to use . I had an ephiphany. This would help jar my memory so I could tell my story and I would be off to the races, (turtle races) when I start writing. (and rabbit races)
Today, I went to my website and my article for today is nowhere to be found. It is not posted, not saved as a draft. It had disappeared into the unknown realm on the internet. Can you imagine how much stuff is there? I know I have my fair share.
So not only, is it not there but my starter line, I had an ephinany, is gone also. It is great to have these thing disappear. It is like playing that matching game called Memory. The one where you flip over two cards and try to get them to match. Then it is the next player's turn. Then you have to remember every card that is flipped so you can win the game. I used to be alot better at this than I am now. Lol
I could of re-written the lost draft or write another article. So I went the second route. Remember you don't have to do everything. Don't get distracted like the hare did in the race. We might be behind but we still have time. I have time to do whatever I want to do but I don't make the time to do what I should be doing. Let's all make better choices. Have a great day. (Suggestion not a demand) lol
