Taking Care of Yourself

I'm sure everyone can appreciate that feeling of being overwhelmed. Running around in 10 different directions trying to get everything done when in fact it woud be pretty much impossible to get everything done. It's a bit of a dream some days.

Well that's been my life lately......but in all honesty I love my life and I don't really want to change too much of it. I would however like a little extra time for me.

I was a little over extended and on a whim I booked myself a massage. I picked just the right girl for me. She barely spoke..... the lights and music were soothing and I had a delicious hour devoted just to me.

Wow..... I had once again neglected taking care of me but managed to be taking care of everyone else. I forgot once again that if I want to chip in and help others I must at least value myself enough to take care of ME.

It wasn't until I was about half way through the massage that the thoughts of ......"OH this is wonderful. this is just what I 've needed" started running through my head. I need to make myself a priority.

Seems simple but as my life gets crazier it's a principle that I keep letting slip my mind.

I'll have to keep working on that.
