For most of my teens and early adulthood I spent a lot of time worrying about others. How are they doing? What can I do to help them? How can I help them? Do they like me? And a million other questions that ultimately concerned them and their well being and not so much my own.

There wasn’t one specific day or big moment but as I got older I realized it is ok to care and be concerned about the people you care about and love, however, you also have to take care of you FIRST. More recently it has been heavy on my heart to think about why was a choosing to put so much effort into others when I am not taking care of me.

Moving closer to things I needed in my life and quitting my job were huge life changes that did cause me some stress but in the long run I believe will be extremely beneficial to me. I can still love, care and be there for others but not in the same way that I was in the past.

I’m choosing me.
