For some weeks back I felt so overwhelmed with lots of activities around me and felt I needed some breakout which made my online activities to reduce drastically. This was not an easy decision to make because we all know that writing on hive is a daily thing and any day you miss will miss you coming week. Anyone that follows me so well might have noticed my absence. I don't feel so bad about it because it's all for my mental health and if I insist on not taking some break it will have a back clash on my health and my kids. You know when someone is so fed up and will respond at any little provocation which can result to lots of headaches and more...money is good but what's the need of having much money while the health is nothing to write home about.

A times telling your friends and family that you need some time out is not so much a realistic thing especially for me that my home is opened to everyone and am seen as a cheerful person which I can't deny so some persons just decide to work into the house without even informing me via phone call. A times even when am informed I don't even know how to tell them not to come unless am not home. This particular scenario played out just on Saturday, I had two persons to coach on Hive but I was off for a meeting at the Church and just felt like resting when I returned, it happened that they just kept to the time I earlier gave. When they came in I just had to freshen up and met them at the sitting room already as my husband kept them busy before I came in. One of them left not so long but the second person was not shaking his body. He felt so relaxed till few minutes past 5 PM, when my husband who left for a short program returned, I reminded him that we have to go visit the farm. So as we made that preparation in his heart I knew he noticed his time was up and also began to arrange himself. So we left the house together.

Applying little wisdom in times we need some time out is very important because some people don't even consider other people around them they are just after what will benefit them. I had a similar experience too yesterday though in my own part I failed to kep my own part of the bargain, I didn't feel so bad because I went out to visit my husband's late uncle's wife and it's been a while since the husband died and there was a message I needed to drop with her. So I don't expect myself to just run out immediately I got to the house. From there we went to visit a family friend when I got the call from a woman I was to sign up on Hive. I didn't just want to throw myself to her because she missed her first chance and now she just need to pay extra sacrifice which will help refine the value for the system. Many people already disappointed me ith their acute u seriousness after sign up and am not ready to accommodate that any longer.

When am fed upon on things I know so well and try to do my best to put them in check, as I explained before. Wisdom profits in giving direction as many people are just after what will be of good benefit to them. If I have you in my house and I need some rest and you don't want to go, I just develop an excuse to walk out which I know that you won't stay back when I make an attempt to go.

Let's say we are all at a place with my family and I need some time to rest, I will quietly excuse myself and get to the room to have some rest. It is difficult to excuse the kids because they will always want to be around you as they don't just understand much now, I have learnt how to keep them busy with videos so I try my best to make sure the phone is always charged.

My mental health is so important to me so I need not to joke with it even for a second.
