The best metaphor [for life] is the briefing you get each time you get on an airplane: put on your own oxygen mask first, so you dont pass out before you can help those who depend on you. No, its not selfish to take care of yourself first. I used to think it was, somehow others made me believe it was. But the me I am when Im unfit and unhealthy is no-where near as useful, successful,or just plain nice-to-be-around as the fit and healthy me. When you choose to take care of yourself, day after day, you are that much more prepared to be a blessing to others lives. And youll be able (by not just age but physical ability) to do so much longer also.-quote stolen from book Im reading, Younger Next Year for Women.
