What Fills Up Your Cup

What Fills Up Your Cup

Everyday we wake up in life, do we all agree that we got to Fill Up Your Cup EVERDAY.  BTW, I DON'T mean literally.  But in life, this is a non-negotiable GIVEN.  You got to replenish those 'stores' of your mental, emotional and physical energy.  These days when technologies have lorded it over our lives, to fill up our cup means we got to pull the brakes and power things off because we got to recharge our batteries.  BTW, do you want to recharge your batteries while you have NOT powered off yet?  That's a NO-NO if you don't want your battery pack to eventually give up💥

Some of us [that includes moi in the past] wrongly thought that that cup is bottomless.  No sirrr, you can dine and have your glass of lemon tea refilled but you got to ask for it.  Remember, many of us are in the midst of caring for others.  Your team in the workplace, your kids, your senior parents and of course your spouse/partner.  And that brings us back to this old saying:  YOU CAN'T POUR FROM AM EMPTY CUP📌

Whether it be PHYSICALLY, EMOTIONALLY, FINANCIALLY or PSYCHOLOGICALLY, you got to be refilling your CUP of LIFE but please DON'T wait for it to get emptied before you REFILL.  That's akin to that frying pan on the cooking stove.  In between your cookings, there's got to be oil or something in there, else the pan could get burned.  Such is the our cup of life⏳

The cost-free and easiest way to refill our cup is to KEEP MOVING.  Exercise, even in small amounts.  That can improve your mood in fact.  Some of us have that innate and burning interest on something worthwhile like writing poems, composing or even sketching and drawing.  MAKE TIME TO DO IT.  Towards endo of day, write down the 3 to 5 things you're grateful for today.  That SELF-APPECIATION will go a long way to refill our cup.  Hug someone from within your family to express your emotional and let out your affection for your family member💊

Take this GIF which tells us 'life can be lifeless' if your cup is empty.  And that is no farther from the truth. Topping the list for your to refill your cup is being constantly mindful of your HEALTH, your eating habits.  Enjoy bits of something rather than inhaling a whole quart of ice cream or an entire bag of M&M, whew.  Oh, if you can apportion a fraction of your time to read books, articles or even blogs [not to self-promote mine though] is a basic input to refill our cup.    Picking up an old hubby or starting a new one is most welcome.  Surely, you were able to figure this out during this two-year pandemic.  C'mon, DON'T miss out to refill our cup of life please❗❗❗
