Take Care of Yourself!
Most families are stretched like never before, with endless chores and commitments leaving barely any time to relax together. Mom and Dad are spending more time working and commuting, while the kids run from school to school to sports to a multitude of extracurricular activities. Women are working outside the home. Time and money are in short supply etc. etc. etc.
Without a doubt, this has put strains on family life, personal time and general peace of mind. Stress levels are high as we all try to juggle too many roles, too many commitments. Whether by choice or for economic necessity, we have less and less leisure time and far less onging contact with our families — very little time to smell the roses and recharge the batteries shall we say.
Only you can take care of yourself, I say. Remember these words: Only you can take care of yourself. Should I say it again? Wake up and smell the coffee!
