My Poetic Style

What do you wish you could do more every day?

I wish with my whole heart that I could have a lot more me time. I work many hours a day and I’m looking after my special needs adult daughter. I’m not saying I don’t consider her a burden, I love looking after her. It’s just my needs are in the background. I don’t look after myself much.

I try to give myself self-care but most of the time I don’t. Ever since I was a child, I looked after others. My childhood was not good. I had to make sure everyone else was happy, foregoing my own needs. I’m still like that today.
