What to do when given the time?

Well, in reflecting on where I am right now, I have noticed that most of what I do in my life is be there for other people. In my life, I facilitate meetings, events, plans, housing, games, for other people in my community. In fact, tonight, even though my boys are not here for me to be responsible for and I can do whatever I want... I am still home to take care of my dogs. I work for them. It is part of my responsibility as a mother as a pet owner. I left them for 2 days while I went on vacation, they will be alone again when summer closes and I empathize with their loneliness...

Sometimes it seems as though I do need to take time for myself, but I may need to learn how to do that. I haven't done that, in so long, or ever, that I may not know how to. What's funny is that I was accused of not taking time for other people, that I was selfish. Interesting.
