what to do

caught up in the rat race
a major loss endured
the need for reassessment of self
the seriousness of life has swallowed me whole
without even knowing it
now running on empty

it seems i’m addicted to having a very complicated life.
since clicking on this thing to do, my life has become more of the opposite.
i like being busy, i like organising, i like to make sure everything in my life is going smoothly. the funny thing is, if it is going smoothly i think i’ve missed something. i don’t give myself a rest and through all this i’ve lost the greatest guy i’ve known.
yes, i must simplify my life. the pressures of being a single mom is overwhelming at times. i think i’m doing it for my son, but my son probably doesn’t need most of whatever it is i’m venturing. i am doing it for me. i think i’m lost. i don’t know what i want anymore. i do know my bf has left me for the pure reason that i did not give our relationship enough. i was too caught up with whatever i was doing. looking back, i feel they really didn’t matter at the time cos i had someone who was willing to give it all. someone who was giving it his all.
first rule for me from now on – simplify my life.
by the way, happy valentines day to all.
