Me-Time

As we grow older, it really strikes me that i have lesser time for myself.
And its not just me. Many people around me share the same sentiments.

We all need our own personal space to certain extent.
True enough, I enjoy the solitude of my emotions.
Somehow the world and everything around me seems less urgent, and more manageable.
And also, i will use the time to reflect about my work, my life and other things...or even trivial things....

I read somewhere that “solitude today is less available and yet more necessary than ever”. I guess it depends on individual. "Me time" is permission to myself to be selfish.

Come to think of it,I'm admire people at my age who are married with kids. They basically have zero Me-time.

Today, my colleague told me that she has not travelled overseas for holiday for 2 years! Reason: she needs to take care of her two young kids.
I think that's quite a sacrifice.

But she said that she is rewarded in other way: The happiness and joy in watching her babies grow.And its not a sacrifice of Me-time.

I guess in life, as long as you know your priorities, you can manage it better.

其实，为人父母者，真伟大！But i'm only referring to devoted parents.
