Il y a des jours comme ça!

There are times when we're so tired... drained.
Not enough energy to do much, not in the mood to go out or be around people...

This weekend I was in this situation.
What made it even worse is that I was out of novels. So, even reading was out of the question.

Well, since I had a long meeting in the morning of Saturday, my weekend didn't start until late afternoon.
I turned the TV on and scanned some channels, without stopping long enough to discover what was playing. I think that too much choice is not very different from not having enough choices. With over a 100 channels, we're so overwhelmed by all the material offered that we can't decide on which show to settle.
I gave up the browsing quite soon.
Then I remembered that I bought a DVD a few days ago and didn't have the time to watch: The Fantastic Four and the Silver Surfer. So I dived into this mixture of comic book heroes' adventure, science-fiction, action and... some humour. I should say that it was entertaining. For more than an hour and a half I was in a different world: Fantasy world!
I like the movies where I can see the results of some nice sophisticated visual effects. I'm always in awe in front of the miracles of the technology, that try to visualise the rich imagination of the artists.

on Sunday, I wasn't only tired, I was even dizzy a little bit since early morning. I slept for 2 hours in the afternoon. I guess my poor body was asking for some much needed rest, and I gladly obliged.
I was saved in the evening when some friends came by and we went out and had a quick sandwich for dinner then went for a stroll. This helped me relax and recharge and get ready for a new week.

Ok, Il y a des jours comme ça... But Life goes on.
Tomorrow is a new day!

The post reminds me of some daily journals that I used to write to note the events of my days. It used to be a state happening after the burst of enthusiasm, vividness, and vitality and consuming them to the maximum. Surely, the commenced result is a totally wrecked body along with a hackneyed mind.

At such moments, the usual commodities that normally make us busy/happy/entertained/ or at the very least Occupied: do not function well. We tend to look for something that is much more fungible, something that is agreeably diverting and amusing at the same time.

According to me, I gravitate to my old habits/hobbies/... The mere opening of an old book totally regenerates me and shifts my mood from total negativity or neutralism into positivism, focusing upon the little details, which are immensely capable of displaying the happy old mood reserved with the old memories, refreshening the spirit through the process of regression.

Yet, from another point of view, I have halted from considering such states as an entirely ineffective and unprofitable. They are a Change in the modi oprandi of our daily life. We need a Break. Sometimes, we do not offer ourselves this leisure. So, our body and our mind lean to endow us It by altering our mechanisms: shutting off some channels, turning off our body's functional jobs, and switching on the other latent potencies.
