Breathe (I have to remind myself)

I am looking forward to this weekend. I've been very stressed lately and I need to just take some time to reflect. Things seem to pile up all at once and it really gets me down. I need to take better care of myself and focus on my health. My biggest problem is worrying about everyone and everything else before me. I know it seems like just good ol' common sense to take care of myself but I worry about the rest of the world first. A trip to the town pool and a good book should put me on my way to healing this weekend. I have many other things I need to do but let's see just how much of it I can leave undone. As my old acupuncturist used to say with a calm voice and a heavy accent, "deep breathe.... relax your mind." Maybe I should listen.
