Sometimes it is staying up later to do laundry, help a child with an essay or washing their dirty car. the areas of our community but have never thought to look into what could be done about it?

Inac- tion destroys dreams, hope, causes rifts in relationships and leaves your soul begging for something better. Inaction hurts others because it prevents life from happening nat- urally. Usually someone who is inactive in one area of life, may be inactive in many areas and that can feel overwhelming and as though there is no reason to even try. People who are in charge of their lives are active. They do the best they can to take care of themselves and others. They are the type of Are you inactive in your life? Are your dish- es piled up so high that you started buying paper plates to make things easier? When is the last time all of your laundry was done? When is the last time you required any form of exercise from yourself? Are you the first to drop your child off at sports practice knowing it is good for her to be physically fit and you leave there to get a large soda on your way home to watch television before you return to get them? Do you see your spouse yelling at the children, demeaning them and yet say nothing? Did you say no to the request for a dollar dona- tion for Feed the Children because you think you should be receiving assistance for yourself? Tired of the graffiti or deserted look of some of Faydra Rector You Matter inactive in life will take some training to reverse. It may not feel natural. You may feel like you aren't in the right clan, club, mix of community members or that you will be rejected for trying to change. Becom- ing active will hurt for a while. It is a good hurt. It is your flesh becoming awake to all that you can be. Push past the pain of change. Become active somewhere in your life. Tell yourself you deserve to be in the game. Take back your hope. Take back your dreams. Activate your life. Faydra Rector, MA is a mental health administrator, author, public speaker, educator and life coach who lives in Red Bluff.
