Too many on her plate
My sister, Grace, who teaches in a Chinese school in Manila has one frustration in life. That’s to play piano. She’s always wanted to learn how to play but with her hectic schedule, it’s just not possible for now. She just might keel over from too much work and other stuff she’s involved in at the moment.
You see, my sister has this tendency to take on so many things all at once. There was even a time in the past year that she hardly ever slept because of her dedication to her work. She’d have so many on her plate that she got sick for a time early this year. When I accompanied her for a medical check-up, the doctor ruled it was overfatigue. She’s so stressed out from work that it’s manifesting in so many ways in her body. Imagine, the doctor advised her to kick off her shoes and relax for at least a month. Watch movies, have fun with friends, go out of town.
Thus, playing the piano will have to take a backseat for now. Soon, when her load becomes lighter.
