Just "Me" Time

"Every person, especially a woman, should be alone sometime during the year, some part of each week, and each day " Anne Morrow Lindbergh

Sounds strange, huh?

Our schedules are so jammed packed with things to do each day. Most of the time the things we feel we "have to" get done are not even for us, but for others.

I read recently that women become so overwhelmed with work, husband, children and doing for others that they forget who they are, which can, in turn, build up anger and resentment.

It's so important to try and find some time each day for you. Take a short walk alone and meditate on your thoughts. Read a good book. Go see a movie. Enjoy your favorite hobby, perhaps scrapbooking. Laugh, dance, sing as if no one is watching you. Just get out of the rut and do something for YOU!

You are right on with this one!. It is so very important that women take care of themselves, mentally, physically, and emotionally. I've often said that if you don't take care of yourself, you certainly can't take care of anyone else. I like to go out for a run whenever I can. It's MY time to just free my mind and enjoy nature. Nothing like it! :)
