Weighing Priorities

I was very happy to resume my blog a few months ago. I truly missed being online, and I missed the writing. It helps me to keep my head straight about things.

But with everything going on in my life, I'm struggling with my priorities. The pace of my life is picking up, and I'm busier than I have been in years. It's a good thing, and this is a good problem to have. It's just that I'm having to evaluate every place where I spend my time against my priorities and my goals.

In the past, my blog was a great comfort, and a big use of my time. Not only was I writing, but I was out reading what the rest of you brilliant people have to say, sharing in your lives, and being stimulated by your observations of life. As I'm getting busier, I'm not sure I have the time to spend in the same way. The other strange thing is that the busier I get, the less inclined I get to stop and pause and reflect for a few minutes. That might not be such a great tendency.

There's a logical solution here, to allot myself a block of time each week to spend blogging and reading blogs. Perhaps I'll travel down that road for a while. I can even schedule in a block of time a couple of times a week so I can make an appointment with myself to keep this going.

I suppose time will tell what I actually do after I submit this post!
