Some days it just seems like there’s not enough of “me” to
go around.
I love to love on others. I try to always give my best and
BE my best. But there are just some seasons where I feel like I’m always
letting someone down. I feel like there’s not enough hours in the day to do
what I need to do, be who I want to be, love on who I want to love on.
And I hate that.
I hate feeling like I need to have two of “me.” I hate
feeling behind on things. And if I don’t feel behind on things, I feel behind
on taking care of myself and my own emotions and needs.
I’m learning, though. I’m
learning that there will never be enough of me to go around. I’m learning that I WILL always disappoint
someone – and sometimes, that someone will be ME. Sometimes it will be
important to put someone else’s needs and soul ahead of my own. But I need to
be aware and recognize, when it’s time to tend to myself. For I can’t give
anyone anything, if I’m not giving myself some love too.
I still get a little stressed in these seasons. I want there
to be enough of me to go around. But most of the time, I’m learning to make
peace with it. I do what I can do. Give what I can give. And be the best me
that I can be. Even if that’s not enough for others.
It’s the best I can do. The best I can be. And that has to be enough.
It’s the best I can do. The best I can be. And that has to be enough.
