Ive always been a social butterfly and Ive always wanted to please others and cater to others before myself. I wear my heart on my shoulder and most days I would get anxiety because I made others issues as if they were mine too. I have many friends, some are close and some are more like acquaintances. I would rush around from place to place, or work to school to bar, just to see or meet a friend so I didnt miss out. At any rate, my Mom passed away and as Ive been grieving Ive been really thinking about life and evaluating everyone in my life, including myself. Boy oh boy, Ive been missing out.... God have me so many more blessings than I realized and Ive taken many for granted. Im not going to miss out ANYMORE. My priorities are changing and Im okay with that. Ive noticed that some people arent really liking this change and Im okay with that too. Yes, Im putting myself and family first. Im not too concerned about people thinking Im selfish or conceded. Im bettering myself and in return that improves quality of life for my kids and family. So as I become a healthier me, as I spend more time at home, as I pass the opportunities to hang out like I used to, please remember that Im trying to be happy for ME. for that, I am PROUD and I know when I am gone, I will be remembered and be thanked just as I remember things my Mom instilled in me and I am forever thankful to her. So, please have a Happy Monday and count your blessings.
