That Incredible Summer
Sometimes you have to catch up. That incredible summer finally arrives, you have all these plans! And you sleep. It’s maybe for the best, slumber away.
An Ode to the Incredible Summer Snooze
Oh, summer, you sly season of sun, you promiser of adventures, of beach escapades and barbecues. You, who whispers of endless days, balmy nights, and the sweet scent of freedom. And yet, for some of us, the much-anticipated incredible summer unfolds in a slightly… shall we say, more horizontal fashion.
The Hype: Summer Fantasies vs. Reality
- The Dream: We’ve all been there, sketching out blockbuster plans, creating bucket lists that could rival an explorer’s diary. This summer, we will climb mountains, sail seas, learn languages, and, of course, get that summer bod ready for its sun-kissed debut.
- The Twist: Fast forward to mid-July. The greatest journey we’ve embarked on is the one from the bed to the fridge and back. Our most consistent relationship is with the snooze button, which we hit more times than we’ve swiped right all year.
The Anticipation: A Sleepy Spiral
- The Build-Up: It starts innocently enough. We circle the last day of work or school on our calendars, the gateway to our incredible summer. We’re brimming with anticipation, ready to seize every moment.
- The Letdown: What happens when that giddy anticipation turns into analysis paralysis? We’ve hyped up summer so much that the pressure to make it incredible leaves us overwhelmed. And what’s our trusted coping mechanism? A nap, of course.
The Reality: Siestas Over Fiestas
- The Social Media Mirage: Instagram is ablaze with tales of tropical travels and sunset selfies, but here we are, perfecting the art of the duvet burrito. Our most liked photo? That accidental selfie during a particularly acrobatic turn in bed.
- The Guilty Pleasure: Let’s be honest, there’s a certain rebellious thrill to sleeping in while the world hustles and bustles outside. It’s our silent summer rebellion against the tyranny of #DoingThings.
- The Unexpected Virtue: In the end, maybe our incredible summer snoozefest is just what we needed. After all, self-care comes in many forms, including catching up on those Z’s.
In a culture that’s all about going and doing, perhaps the truly incredible summer is the one where we give ourselves permission to just… stop. To rest, to dream, to recharge. So, as you scroll through your feed, witnessing the highlight reel of everyone else’s incredible summer, remember there’s glory in the quiet moments, the ones that happen between the sheets (of your bed, that is).
Share this if you too are part of the incredible summer snooze squad. Embrace the nap, and let the world know that sometimes, the best summer is the one you dream through. Sweet dreams and happy napping, summer snoozers!
