Hello all ~
This is wonderful thinking, and I used to feel that way. BUT, over the
years of giving...giving...learning to heal...and healing...I had to
relearn some things. I am not a taker - never have been. But after 2
strokes in 3 days - 2 years ago, I learned I needed to put me high up
on that list. So now I do take care of myself, by eating better, doing
little things for myself that make me smile, taking my coumadin, and by
working with my fitness trainer twice a week. All of this places me in
a wonderful frame of mind to help my animals and my patients as well as
my family.
So, intrepid listees, get out your pencils, ugh no - pens, and write your
name at the top of your list, and be good to yourselves a bit each day.
God bless all of you!
