self·ish
1. devoted to or caring only for oneself; concerned primarily with one's own interests, benefits, welfare, etc., regardless of others.
today amongst my wandering throughout the third ward in milwaukee, i came to a conclusion. this so called "selfishness" that i've seemed to label the way i am lately, is a good thing.
why?
because i spend all week giving my all to others, making sure their image is top notch and that their confidence is at its max. i schedule my life around them and make sure their needs are fulfilled. so at the end of the week, who do i have? myself. it's when the world stops spinning and i get a chance to breathe a little. to soak in the freedom, digest, and shake off the happenings of the week. i am rarely in a bad mood when i get that opportunity to enjoy what i have around me. i am at complete ease when i can have my camera around my neck, a hot beverage in my hand, and all the options in the world standing before me with open arms. to smile, to laugh in the company of people i love and care deeply for, and to be selfish.
my dose of selfishness today- gerbera daisies.
((oh and, sorry about the freak out post last tuesday. i had a TERRIBLE day wednesday due to that and it was not a cool feeling at all. i'm fine and still kicking.))
