Day 28: Patience

I know we all have the same number of hours in each day. You have 24 hours, so do I. But how come, in the recent days, I've felt like I have been moving at such a strange supersonic speed that I can hardly catch my breath. There are always too many things to do, a pile of stuff that was due two days ago and my in-tray and schedule book is filled with this, that and the other. There are things to review, meetings to have, stuff to prepare and I feel like I'm drowning. It makes me just want to curl up in a ball, sit in a corner and be by myself. I don't want to chat, I don't want to go out, I don't want to have to do things that I really don't want to do. I just want to be still, be quiet and be me. I don't want to be hounded after, nagged at, pestered or bothered. I want to stick to deadlines I care about. I want to care about people I choose to care about. I want to do things that truly matter to me. So there. Hmph.

Breathe. Breathe. Breathe.

Ok, Cherie feels better already.

Ps: Happy Birthday Joan. :)
