sexyspice's blog post - I have learned something new ...

I care too much. Yep it's true. I have in the past few weeks in my absence from this place started to say NO to people more. I do it because I care ... and why do I do this you ask ???

Because I care, I like to be there for friends, I like knowing they know they can ask me for help and that me SUPERWOMAN .. am there for them.

Thing is ... I'm not superwoman and for far too long have been trying to be.

There are many expectations of your everyday average working wife and mother (yes I know same for you working husbands and dads) but what I mean is people just dont admit when they find life overwhelming.

I mean really to me its a sign of strength if you can turn around and say RIGHT enough ... world back off for 5 minutes I need a break.

I bend I dont break ... I'm tough and I'm tenacious. I have depression - it sucks!

SO from now on I'm caring for myself, doing what makes me feel good, still assuming the roles I usually fulfil just on my terms.

know what ???

I FEEL GREAT xxx

thanks for stopping by to read my little blog smile

Good on you sexy. You can't take care everyone so you can take care of yourself

That sounds like a great epiphany, and so so true. The way I look at it is if you don't look after yourself you're not much help to anyone else anyway
