Sloth



I am being a sloth. The pictures above are of sloths, the real ones. I am being the proverbial sloth. Slow to move, slow to react, slow to do anything. I am perpetually tired and sleepy. I feel like being a koala too. This is partially due to the fact that I have been under the weather. But I am really dragging my feet. If I could sleep 10-12 hours a day, I would. My back aches, my chest hurts, my head feels heavy, my heart is not where it should be. I need something / someone to change me back.

Slipping

I can feel myself slipping. In more than one ways.
As a wife and mother, I think I am slipping in my sense of responsibility. I think I neglect my loved ones more than I can afford to.
As a teacher, I feel myself becoming less passionate about what I do. Especially in class. I do enjoy teaching still, but the passion is just not as strong anymore. Too much work, perhaps?
As a Christian, my passion for my Lord and Saviour leaves a lot to be desired. I pray He forgives me and bring back that first love to my heart.
I think I am just letting a lot of less important things crowd out parts of my life. It is time I trim some of them away. Problem is am I up to it?
