there is a saying: " one cannot see the forest forl the trees". one could also say: the mirrored image is blurred and the vision distorted. 
having too many items on the daily to-do list will foster a notion of irritation. the feeling of being  irritated creates a perfect breeding ground for frustration, for self-doubt and for exhaustion. the feeling of being simply overwhelmed grows in the center of the forest, where daylight hardly enters. A very dear girlfriend of mine is walking through a forest these days and i can see that she has lost sight of the trail in the twilight of the forest. road signs are scarce. I wish I could guide her, but how? the forest is dense and the mushrooms growing along the trail could be poisonous. boy scouts have a rule: when you get lost, stay put. yet, does this apply here? maybe the few rays of sunlight will warm the skin, maybe the moist air will calm the mind, maybe the sound of the trees will embrace the soul.. and maybe, maybe .. the trail will reappear.
