"I Vant To Be Alone"
Do you get a lot of time alone? No, me neither.
When I was younger I never cared about ‘alone time’… I mean when I was younger and wasn’t a mother.
I guess when you are only
responsible for yourself, you get more alone time...Now, I love alone time.
I even meditate now (yeah, I read The Secret… didn’t we all?)
I read a lot more now too.
It’s healthy to have alone time. It’s also important to remember that there is a huge difference between being alone and being lonely.
It comes down to, once again- something that is very hard for moms to do:
taking time for yourself, making time for yourself.
I used to think, ‘Why would I take the time to read this book when I could be getting that done?’ But now I realize that it is about 'quality of life'. It’s about enjoying your journey.
It’s about enjoying every minute,
And being focused,
And getting a good night’s sleep,
And getting ‘Alone Time’.
So I’ll say it again, in the words of Greta Garbo,
“I Vant to be Alone!”
