IS THIS:
That somewhere out there exists a secret program available. A brainchild come to fruition straight from the movies "The Matrix and Inception". A state of being where one can live another life parallel in conjunction to what is actually taking place in reality.
For years, my mother has raved on about how other women must live an entire other life while she was sleeping because they seemingly are capable of accomplishing an unequal amount of tasks and priorities as compared to the "regular" amount of time given most people in a 24 hr day.
Now as a grown woman myself, I no longer scoff at the idea as I venture towards the same puzzling, panicked, and at times, INFURIATING conclusion.
For the most part, I consider myself to be a pretty high-paced, efficient person when it comes to getting things done. Having spent the majority of my 33 years being told to "slow down" or have more patience in other peoples natural cadence, it comes as a huge surprise when I find other women able to accomplish 5 times the amount of things that I do.-And, I. AM. FAST.
I know, I know..."Thou Shall Not Covet Thy Neighbors TIME"
But I DO!!! I find myself unable to wrap my brain around the fact that people are capable of so much in such a short amount of time. It is logistically impossible to: cook all the meals, do all the laundry, scrapbook, nurse, blog, run errands, do homework, the photo's, the grocery shopping, chior, walk the dog, have a hobby, have a calling, read your scriptures, shower, bake the cake, make the costume, coupon, have FHE, exercise, email, work, sex, housework, facebook, school, doctors visits, lessons, dates, sewing, the list goes on and ON!!
But still, some women DO IT ALL. How is this possible?- It's not.
If only we had a way of splintering off from this dimension, and while being "plugged in" at night we were able to slip into an alternate universe where we could accomplish more and have it roll over to our present reality when we awake? -Thereby giving the impression that we are capable of much more than what makes logistical sense. -Not too crazy of an idea right?
So next time you find yourself feeling inferior about all the things that "so-and-so" is doing and you're trying to make sense of the vexation this causes you...
just remember...
perhaps 24 hrs...is not just 24hrs.
