Please Come See Me....

"Please come see me," my adult friend wailed.

"I'm sorry, but I need this time for me," I responded.

"I need this time to tune out the world, recharge my batteries, and rejuvenate."

"Yes, but isn't life to be 'celebrated,'" she said.

Yes, and this is how I celebrate my life on days when I need to rejuvenate."

Everyone has their needs and I must look out for my needs FIRST. I can only look after your needs so much before I start sacrificing my own needs. Sorry!

I do not like excessively NEEDY people who manipulate others by crying, begging, manipulation through guilt, sex or a plethora of other means, legal or illegal.

If you love someone, love yourself FIRST. If you do not love yourself; how can you expect others to love you.

Take care of your own needs FIRST.

Celebrate your own life FIRST.

Always remember the first rule in lifesaving is to save your own life!

Along the way, help others, but take care of yourself and respond to your own needs first.

After all, it is the right thing to do!
