In more recent years, tho I have been trying to do more for others. But I get where you're coming from. It's great to devote time for others, but we won't be our best if we don't take time for ourselves, too.<br /><br />Good luck keeping up with caring for yourself!<br /><br />NancyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00601073005728827355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36936171259835220.post-54832026384405438582010-01-09T17:20:07.673-06:002010-01-09T17:20:07.673-06:00You've reached the right conclusion; better la...You've reached the right conclusion; better late than never.<br /><br />As we advance in age we realize that whar brings about illness are the everyday stress, tension, pressures. We must find a way to minimize these bad things, listen to our body & soul needs and act accordingly.<br /><br />My way of relaxation and balancing things is taking a walk, blogging, and other activities that have Me at the center.DUTAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12979375799258978432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36936171259835220.post-68131274063519500482010-01-09T16:52:31.794-06:002010-01-09T16:52:31.794-06:00I did something very nice for myslef a few nights ...I did something very nice for myslef a few nights ago.

This semester, I'm trying to carve out more time for me instead of the semester running me. I've made more time for my students, but also needed to make that much needed time for me.Cathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06804443617345021699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36936171259835220.post-88220675701165679142010-01-09T07:44:42.000-06:002010-01-09T07:44:42.000-06:00Amen sister!!!
