Looking up

I'm so unhappy with my lack of reading time lately. I've been so busy that it's been practically nonexistent and my normal bath reading time has been finding me falling asleep in the tub. I'm afraid I'll wake with a wet book. I feel so off my game. Don't you hate it when that happens? I find my reading is now relegated billboards.


Funny (or sad depending on how you look at it) story. My normal blog hoppers will know I like the sayings on the little church that I pass often as I shuttle the DD to dance class. Well, there has been a particularly good but kinda long one (3 lines) up this past week. Too long for me to read the whole thing as I whizzed by at breakneck speed. I finally got the end of the saying today and it all came together:


Sorrow looks back

Worry looks around

Faith looks up!


Nice, huh?
Best,
Kwana

"Looking up" allows room for praise and gratitude.
Reading time here seems to have suffered, but I plan on changing that!

A very nice quote here. I always seem to find more time for reading after the holidays~in the dead of winter. I have a large collection waitig for me.

I believe looking up and forward are the only ways to spend good and fruitful time. Don't beat yourself up over not having enough time to read or catch up. Eventually, you will. :)

If it is any consolation I have been not able to read and do all my regular blog visits. Maybe because my head has been in the clouds lately. I too hope to change things. Enjoy my friend. xoxo

I'm the same way when school starts -- I've fallen asleep early every night (even missed Mad Men! gasp!). Still working full time, with all the chaos and driving and such, means a sleepy mom. : ) But things will settle into a routine soon ...

I'd add to the saying that "Hope looks forward." ...

Looking Up helps with just about anything doesn't it?

I know what you mean about reading time; hoping that improves now that school has started again (though I have weeks of catch-up on stuff to do first).
