Me. Me. Me.....sometimes

I'm a giver.  I give and give and give until I have nothing left.  I don't really ask for much in return.  Don't get me wrong, I love being able to help those I care about when they need it but sometimes, I want the focus to be on ME.  It would be nice to have someone go out of their way to check on me or ask me how I am doing or if there is anything they can do to make my day/life better.  I try to be Wonder Woman and do it all but it can be overwhelming.  Right now, I feel like I have nothing left.  I'm at a point where I don't even have enough left in the tank to take care of me and my needs.  I do for others what I would like for them to do for me because I believe that is how things work in life - you give and sometimes you take when you need to but one should always give back (which is why I am still looking into charity volunteer opportunities).  I know there are some people in my little world that genuinely care about me and that may not even realize that I need some "me" time but all they have to do is ASK.  The simple act of asking would mean a lot to me but I don't want someone to ask because they feel obligated to do so.  I want them to ask because they care.  I would like to know that I am in their thoughts like they are in mine and that they want my happiness as much as I want theirs.  And that's where it is today...

Smiling on the inside,
