The body, mind and soul yearn for movement. There is only so long you can go depriving yourself of it. Eventually, you find yourself trying to access it.

Perhaps life's purpose is simply to find ways to fill your time; if that's the case, I suppose life's curse is thus deciding what is worth filling your time.

As there are only so many minutes a day can be, and you are currently operating at capacity; for each new activity to enter your day, one must go.

If you cannot treat yourself with kindness, how can you be sure what you extend to others is kindness.
