Tea and Motivation

"I love to write" says the girl with 400+ odd blog posts spanning more than a decade.. and probably double that number nestled safely in "drafts", waiting to be perused on nostalgic mornings.
This is not that morning :D

Growing older is also about being more honest with yourself. I love to write but I don't do it often enough. Conscientiously enough.

Increasingly I find myself distracting the mind with mundane flights into imaginary worlds courtesy Instagram. I wish I would delve so enthusiastically into my subject.

There is so much to be done. And I'm letting time slip away. It will not get less-busy I am told. And I believe it. Because I see the evidence around me. I literally wrap my arms around living, breathing, laughing, loving proof that life is only going to get more full of activities, people, meetings...

It's 10.30 am on a Monday morning. The week has just begun. The list is not at its peak.
I need to grab a hold of the time. Snatch it out of mid-flight and pin it down, muscle it into submission with my determination and finish the most postponed phase of my career.
This time will not come back.
I am most aware, Carpe Diem Self, or at least the first part. Seize the Day not because you have little regard for the future but because you Do care. Because you know the future is coming. and today Must be seized.

Seize today, because tomorrow is not that far away. A little light editing of a classic is a good way to begin ;)
