So as I was driving home the other night, and trying not to cry at the stupidity of those around me, I came to the conclusion that I don't have time for anyone but my family and friends. I am going to stop worrying about those who do not fall into either of those categories. I know this probably sounds a bit harsh, but really, if I don't know you, and you don't know me, why should you be a blip on my radar? I don't feel like this is sticking my head in the sand, I am just choosing to focus inward a bit.
Every year I hear stories about people who died before they could apologize to their families and friends. I don't want to be that person; I don't want to wonder who will come to my funeral. Yes, I think this post might just be a little bit morbid, but this time of year always makes me think of death (my father died during the holidays), but also, of rebirth.
I am already starting to think of my New Year's Resolutions....will have to resurrect many from the past - as I just can't seem to get some of them done...but I have faith; I know I will get them done.
So dear friends, I will try to have more time for you - and less for the other time-suckers in my life.
family,
time management,
friends
