Be Easy on Yourself

“How are you? How is it going?”

People ask me this all the time, and my response is, “fine.”

But am I really fine? Most often I’m tired, stressed and wondering where the day went. Life in towing is not easy. It takes a toll on your mind, body and spirit.

The following poem is a great reminder to be easy on yourself, and maybe the next time someone asks, “how are you?” you might just say exactly how you are: happy, blessed, loved – so much more than fine!

Be Easy on Yourself

By Donna Levine

“Our days can sometimes be very confusing. We seem to have too many things to do, too many problems to solve and not enough time to accomplish everything. We tend to forget that each day is a beautiful miracle and there is much love and enjoyment to be experienced.”

“You don’t have to solve every problem or accomplish all your goals in one day. Finish what you can today and leave the rest for tomorrow. Allow yourself time to relax, time to be with your friends and loved ones, time to play and time to sit in the sunshine.”

“Be easy on yourself and you will find your problems are easier to solve and that you can accomplish more with your time, and you will also find that your life is more peaceful, your days are more fun and that you are happier and more content.”
