Sometimes I miss me.
Yes, sometimes I really miss just getting in touch with myself - because I value my own insights and feelings. I like my own writing. I guess that is a good thing.
There is so much in life that makes us lose touch with the things we hold most dear, including our own friends and family. I used to let my job get in my way. I would never plan things during the week because I was just too exhausted to do anything after work. Then I would beat myself up about it and feel like I was just lazy. The weekends would come and I would decide I needed to rest up for the week - and again I would not find time for the things that would make me a happier and more well-rounded person.
The truth is - there is never going to be "enough" time to do all the things I want, to read all the books I want, to write all of my thoughts down. I have to MAKE time.
I am a little happy right now. I am happy that I used the last 10 minutes to write. The rest of the day will be busy with school, studying, grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning and probably a little bit of time that I will wonder what I did with later. (wait, is that a sentence?)
I hope I will write more this week, but as it said on the wall at the old TCH building -
TIME WILL TELL.
Great job on another excellent blog that made me pause and consider what I could do to make the most out of my time as well, to set priorities and let the rest go. I spend too much time feeling bad about what I didn't get done instead of celebrating what I did accomplish, even if it was just to rest for a bit so I could have a better day tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteShellBell: I really like and agree with your comments. OUTSTANDING ;-) And I, too, believe Nancy could write a great book, one that is warm, thoughtful, insightful, with some humor thrown in, just like her blog.
I have such wonderful friends.....
