Perhaps, if we feel tired a great deal, it is a message for us. Perhaps we need to re-evaluate the way we spend our time, the way we exert our energy, and the way we pour our vitality out into the world. Maybe we are wasteful about it. Maybe we are not honoring our heart. Maybe we are so duty bound that we are missing the calling of our small joys.
Enthusiasm is never tired. It is ever-creative, sprightly, bright-eyed, and fully alive. If we cannot maintain enthusiasm, perhaps we need to make some changes in the way we live. It's a hard thing to look at. The changes that call us might require leaps of faith and abundant courage. We might have to plunge into the unknown. What we have is predictable, even if it's exhausting. To change takes so much effort, that it seems easier somehow to just keep on as we are and be "tired." But if we're honest, we know that in the end, staying stuck does not, and cannot, and will not ever, have the power to satisfy us.
If I'm always tired, I am willing to do some soul searching to discover what my tired is all about, and honestly consider the changes I need to make to restore vitality to my life.
