Ruthfulness

Ok, so I saw a post recently about the word ruthfulness, which is the opposite of ruthlessness, and basically means gentle, compassionate.
They were talking about how some people are ruthless in their lives and do whatever the logical thing is ruthlessly, without any compassion for how it affects anyone else, as long as it gets results.

And what actually struck me about the post was the part where she said that we don't have to live our lives pushing as hard as we can every day, ruthlessly, anxious about everything. Worrying that we won't get everything done actually creates friction in the process, and that fear can keep us from getting things done. We need to be compassionate- to ourselves. Yes, approach the day with a purpose, but don't kill yourself to do it. If it's going to take more time, either cut some things, or take more time to do those things, instead of trying to cram everything in and then feeling terrible when you don't. It's ok to be relaxed and still work on things and get things done.


Showered. It's 11 PM and I'm about to go
vacuum the bedroom and maybe the rest of the house, because I feel a need to do it.
Maybe launder some towels since I know I'll be up a while.
I also need to make Relly's bed before he gets home.
Fold some laundry/put away before game day.
Get ready for game day. List of magical items and etc.
