Sunday’s are for leisure.. yet, had not been particularly looking forward to the day today. Knew had much to do.. marketing in the morning, a meditation and yoga camp to attend, guests at home for lunch, an invitation to attend a classical music program and then a dinner at a colleague’s place. Felt claustrophobic…to spend the day with so much and so many and no time for myself. Weekends are always nice when I can spend time with myself.. need that.. guess we all do. Tried to do all I could but as always, I managed to do some of them and some remained in oblivion..a few lines penned from my thoughts:
Endeavored all Sunday long.. duties & work galore,
Struggled hapless with trivials.. yet they seemed to pour,
Did some.. failed some.. wonder what was in store,
Few I knew would be happy with me.. the rest little sore,
Tired and harried I ran around as the holiday wore,
Times I felt a little terse and at times I even swore,
Monday loomed large ahead..could feel work implore,
Had enough with weekends.. wouldn’t want anymore.
So it ended another Sunday…not the best I could have but then we need to live with reality and with life. Needless to say, it is not always interesting or good but then who am I to say so… we all need to live with life and even if it is not fair, it is yet worth living.

What you have said here is so true Sir. We hardly get to spend time for ourselves on weekends or holidays.
