My Cup Runneth Over

Today I woke up with the feel of despair.
I woke up thinking maybe I'm too ambitious. I'm working on trying to get my one-woman show off the ground for August, writing a short that I want to shoot this year, balancing rehearsals for acting class, trying to pay off bills, and oh yeah work my two restaurant jobs along auditioning. AHHHHHH

So of course I'm feeling wiring and feeling like there aren't enough Cieras to take care of everything. So I went for a run. While running all of these endorphines started releasing. I felt good to just run away. And was feeling so high and the sweat made me feel so good! Then all of a sudden I TRIPPED! I mean tripped so hard that I feel and rolled over. I know people saw me and I didn't skip a beat in getting right up and ignoring people's stares. I was about to continuing running but then I stopped. And told myself to SLOW DOWN. And that's what I did, I walked. I completed my 2 mile run by walking.

And yet there lies a lesson in here somewhere. I'm not confucious so I can't make it sound so profound, but I think the lesson is along the lines of "When your cup runneth over, slow down and take sips rather than huge gulps" :-)

I'm confident that my one-woman show will be amazing! and that I don't need to boggle myself down with making it more than what it is.

Thanks for reading
