When it comes right down to it..
Survival is what we need.
We should do everything we can to continue.
Being selfish for a minute..
I think we do so much for everyone else for so long ..we forget...
We need too. We want .. we have requirements. We never ..acknowledge to ourselves that we have earned something that makes us smile. Not to deny it.
Yes..we have learned not to be selfish..and we practice that..
But in reality..it isn't selfish to allow something for us.
It is an earned right.
Something we have paid into..and need to remember to cash in on..
It is deserved.
We do so much for those we care for..not out of obligation..but it is who we are. We are responsible.. we take ownership of our life.
The choices we made. Either selected or forced. We didn't run ..
We did what was required. With little or no help.. we did. We continue to do.. much to our current situation..
We are here..in this place because we cant walk away from this.
It would isn't who we are.
Unfortunately it makes us forget 'the me' that ocasionally requires attention.
Which in the long run.. leaves us alone..lonely.. and lost. Guilty..for entertaining the thought of doing something for 'me'..
With no thought of how deserving we are.. or how much it is needed.
Really required for our sanity.
Not that anyone cares about our personal sanity...
Most Times we don't even think about it.
Sometimes we really need to.
We need to nurture that thing that makes us smile.. enable it. Make it a part of our being..
Something to keep us warm at night while we are sleeping..that mental feeling of being hugged, so we can keep on keeping on.
The physical may not be there..because we keep it at arms length..
But a mental connection.. can be fulfilling. Until we let it back in.
If we don't make a place..for us.. we lose track of where we should be.. no one will do that for us.. unless we let them.. we have to be resposible for our happiness..our sanity..
Who else will?
So..to continue..we need to find what we need to survive.
Forget the judgement of others.. even the ones that care..or we care for..
To survive..we need to find what we need.. need to continue.. to keep getting up each day and keep going forward. If we don't we can't help anyone. .let alone ourselves.
We must do for us ..to survive.
Without that..we can not help anyone else.
