There is an episode of the Simpsons where Bart cheats on an aptitude test and gets sent to a gifted school. When Bart is asked to give an example of a paradox, he states "you're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't." This pretty much sums up my past year. No matter what I do, it always seems to be the wrong thing. I am admittedly a people pleaser, but when I try to take some time for myself it is considered selfish. When I don't take some time for myself then relationships in my life seem to take a hit. I wish balancing your life was as easy as balancing the checkbook. That I can do.
The winds of change are blowing and the more I think about things the more I am beginning to recognize the positives. Granted, there are still a few tough decisions to make but I'm going to try to not to dwell on them for right now. We'll see where the wind takes us.
I like your last paragraph. It will all work out.
