 It’s something that I think about everyday-what I really want is a lot more time.
Being more than a little greedy, I always want to try my hand at everything despite being adverse to doing things that require too much effort.
I like working hard, even though I grumble to myself about it, and always want to go out on Friday night regardless of how tired I am. If I’m invited somewhere I usually show up.
The greatest words of praise for me are “You’re great to be around”!
That being so, I also love spending time relaxing at home and can stay there solid for days on end.
There are so many different things I want to do and not enough time to do it in.
But does that make my life full?
I’m not a hard worker by any means, but I do my job well, enjoying my leisure time and hobbies, and get on well with my friends too. I could never truly enjoy myself if any one of these were missing.
If my job makes me feel stressed, I can get rid of it by going out to have fun. Then after I’ve used up my money on having a bit too much fun, I get down to some hard work again. I wonder if that’s a good cycle? (It seems to work for me...)
I’m very grateful for being able to spend my time in this way.
Life is so precious-it would be a waste not to enjoy it! |
