NaBloPoMo March Day 3-This is Me

Today's Topic-When or where do I feel most like myself?

Well I am a daughter, a sister, a cousin, a mother, a worker, a friend, a blogger, etc....  I am a lot of things.  I wear a lot of hats everyday.  Sometimes when everything is going so fast you do not have time to think about one self.  You forget that person exist.  You are always doing things for others and never for yourself.  Who are we talking about again?

I think I am feeling like myself most often when it is just me.  When I can refocus on who I am.  I like to run.  I run without music.  People think that is weird but to me it is not.  It is my time.  I talk to myself.  I clear my head of others, their needs, their wants, their problems, etc... and then I am just left with me.  I have no needs or do I.  I have no wants or do I.  I have no problems said no one ever.  I get to remember that I do exist.  That there is a self being myself, when I am alone by MYSELF.

It is good to just stop for a moment.  Some people don't have that, a free moment does not exist for them or their schedule.  I am one of those people.  I like everything planned and scheduled.  Do not throw something at me last minute, it throws me off.  But I am learning to focus on ME.

A couple of years ago, I realized that I forget ME more often than I should.  I am the long lost friend that I call up every now and again when no one answers.

I now take time to find myself.  I am starting to feel more like myself when I do things that make me smile, that make me remember I am a daredevil, and adventurous person, and I definitely feel like myself when I am around my loved ones.  They make me feel whole, and are my comfort.

I feel like myself when I am hanging out with friends.  I feel like myself when I am here.
