So, the other day, I posted a blog about my First Lesson of 2011.......I said I didn't feel bad about what I had done.....well, I still don't feel bad exactly, but, true to form.....I've been picking apart my behaviour.
...........................Perhaps I should have been kinder than I was..............
...............................................I could have said things in a different way..........
I didn't though.
As a general rule I like to help people when I can. I don't mind being asked for advice, or for my opinion......however, like most folks, I like for people to ask after me as well.
The other day, Delusional Mom posted a quote from her "Daily Bitch" calendar: " Daily Bitch - Jan 2: Call me sometime when you don't need anything."........that's sort of how I feel.
I am hitting the middle of my 30's in a couple short months..... I really feel it's time to do something big....do I know what the something might be? Nope, not a clue over here. I just feel like I should be "Doing Something".
What does that even mean? Maybe I've been Dr. Philled and Oprahfied into thinking these things ( Thankfully I've not been Maury Poviched......I know who my kids belong to).
A friend recently asked me if I am feeling more "fulfilled" now that I am working. I thought about it, then answered a truthful "No. I don't find cleaning other people's toilet's fulfilling". I do like to think they find it nice to come home to a clean house, but, little would change for them if I stopped coming around.
I would love to do something big, some kind of grand gesture/achievement that would make me jump up and say "YES! Now I am fulfilled!". Any suggestions? Whatever they are, you must consider my prior commitments to my husband, kids, dog and job....oh, and if it could be something that is free of charge, that would be so sweet.
I've been reading "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" (for school) -- and the chapter I'm on now (2) talks all about this. It even tells you how to find out what it is you want to do, even if you don't know what to do!
ReplyDeleteI have the book, and the workbook - and am really grateful that I've got them both - I would NEVER have bought these books if it weren't for school and my soul/spirit is just eating this stuff up...It was exactly what I needed!
That's funny.....husband has that book ,and the sequel.....never thought of reading it myself....maybe I should. ;)
