turning a corner

so it's been quite a while since i've posted anything new here. i suppose i'm still getting used to a blog culture. and how my little thoughts & musings can possibly be important.

still, i prefer to get my thoughts out ... i need to write about things so i can fully appreciate their meaning. i analyze my own data that way.

it seems i have come to yet another fork in my road ... this road that has held so many surprises. and, for possibly the first time, i am asking myself, "what do i want?" i am feeling, again, that it's time to put me first.

maybe that's selfish ... maybe that's hurtful ... and maybe it's a fairy tale.

knowing myself as i do, and i have known myself as long as i can remember, i will not be able to put myself first. it is easier for me to concentrate on the other people in my life ... worry about family, the kids, friends, ex's, co-workers, colleagues, etc, etc, etc. but as i am standing at this fork, right now, at this very moment, i want to concentrate on me.

the trouble is ... which direction will that lead me?
