The Waters Getting A Bit Murky

There's a ritual I have to do every week.

Not by choice.

I have to do it or someone dies.

If I don't do it, someone's blood is on my hands.

Cleaning the fish tank has to be done weekly.

To keep the waters clear, pH level right and filters clean.

If I miss it, I risk losing a precious fish.

But in my mind I'm not just cleaning a fish tank.

I'm taking time outside of a busy schedule to maintain quality of life.

It's the life of my pet fish but the principle is the same for our own lives.

Something we struggle to do in our modern day lives is prioritise time for ourselves.

We struggle to put time away to meditate, work out, spend time with loved ones and recharge.

We avoid cleaning our fishtanks and stay on the hamster wheel of life being 'busy'.

Is it time to clean the fish tank?
