Have you ever let life get in the way of whats been right in front of you?
Yeah, me neither....
I've been busy or claim to believe so. I work from 6 to 430, which work consists of working people out, tons of paperwork, and plenty of time to get what you need to get accomplished, done. I get up at 345 so I have ample time to get my workout in to kickstart my day. I get home, eat, prepare for the next day, and if I have enough fuel in me- i'll stay up to watch a movie with my husband. This eventually leads into me dozing off for the rest of the night. Monday through Friday this is my life. Is it fair to my Husband and my daughter who only get the 15 percent while 85 percent of me is used at work?
No. It's not.
Multitasking is difficult for me. Always has been, hopefully won't always be. It gets so bad that I can't text and talk. Drive and pick a different song, Listen to Bryan while i'm tending to blakely. I'm very one minded. It's either me or my family. Its difficult for me to spread the time out evenly and it's something that I will be working on.
Life is defined as a human or animals existence from birth to death. Life is Energy. It's the capacity for growth, reproduction, functional activity, and continual change. I agree with all those definitions; I'd also agree with the fact that some of us get so involved with the changing of our own lives that we forget whats in our life.
These past two weeks have been pretty hard for me- and yes I will say it. I have lost sight in what gives my life meaning; My husband and my little girl. I guess you could say this is pretty personal to an extent but it needs to be shared because I know I am not the only one.
We (I), tend to focus more on what society wants of us. Have a nice paying job, a perfect little life, time for yourself, your friends, and your family. Religion is not that big of a center point in families these days. Spouse equality may or may not be as important to others. Work is a place for relaxation because theres so much hostility at home. Sooner or later we're making excuses for why marriages fail, why children are so "messed up" from living in a broken home, why financial responsibilities should be #1. Why we brush aside the important things and why we let the wrong things dictate our actions/choices versus the right things.
Do not lose sight in what really keeps you going. The minute you do, you better snap back in reality because your job and the clothes you wear won't aid you in real comfort. Don't get caught up in the "necessities" that really aren't. Remember the grass isn't always greener on the other side.
I myself have not been to the "other side" and I don't want to venture out that way. I'm happy where I am, I just forget it at times.
Stop to take a look, reflect, and savor the important things that you have. You will realize that you have it better than you thought.
Bryan,
Thank you for never losing sight in me. You are a bigger person than you realize.
