It’s Tuesday, and that means Colleen’s Tanka Challenge! Of course, just providing a couple of words would be far too simple, so we have two words, yes, but we can’t use them! Only synonyms allowed!
A beautiful face
Can mask a grotesque nature
Be wary of looks
You think you're seeing one thing
Truth is something different

There are days you wish you could tell the world to stop a while – you want to get off – just for a bit.

Nothing serious folks, I am just tired … been a busy few weeks, as you know.

“When I’m tired, I rest. I say, ‘I can’t be a superwoman today.”
Jada Pinkett Smith
Thanks Spidey!
Yes! Yes! Jada, Yes!!!
I agree with you 100%!
I just wish I could follow that thought process through.
I need to really learn when to step back and say “no, I can’t do that. I am too tired.”
Instead I am always running on nearly empty, refuelling just enough to get through, then running myself low again.
That is not a good way to live.
I really need to take Mrs Pinkett Smith’s advice, so I can continue to be a superwoman, like all those others out there!
So… tell me, do you know when to take a break?
