Priorities

I'm setting my own priorities today.  I've been making everyone else's life my priority.  My job, my children.  I have to speed up slow down to everyone else's pace when I don't gauge my own.  And I frequently, I forget the importance of gauging my own pace.  Then, I have to deal with the fallout.  I'm dealing with fallout now.  So, today, I will take my time and put what I can on the back burner.
There are no fires today and these out of body experiences that come with losing myself in other peoples affairs are getting old.

I'm too old for this.  I know that something in my life needs to change.  I will sit and wait and look and develop the courage to do what I need to do.  I will continue to do the things that make me feel complete and whole and not the flesh eating activities that society forces on us.

I'm tired today.  I overslept and Dante was late for school.  My legs are numb from running from here to there.  I forget who I am when who I am depends on the likes and dislikes of those around me.  Forgetting myself...me is a luxury that I just cannot afford.
