In an optimistic world, one wakes up on a Monday morning looking ahead to a balanced week – some work, some play, a lot of home cooking and enjoying many films, preferably foreign or filmed on location somewhere one might be longing to travel to.

But, that isn’t always the case, because the universe usually has something different in store – especially when you least expect it.

Last week, too many things reshaped my days, and I felt overwhelmed until I slowly regrouped and began figuring out a rhythm to follow.  Do you ever feel that way? When your life goes out of whack and you are left with figuring out a new way to adapt. Haha! What am I talking about – this year we’ve all had to figure out a new lifestyle.

The sad thing about obstacles in life is that the first thing it does is suck the creativity out of you and hence the most creative of things become the most difficult to attain.

So while I continue to readjust my days and pretty much all things defining my life, I leave you with these inspirational thoughts:

“Sometimes I can hear my bones straining under the weight of all the lives I’m not living.”

Jonathan Safran Foer
