It's taken me years to get to this point. Alice Walker writes about it a lot.

All that on top of mi hija's wedding....as a result, I've been in bed with the plague or something for about a week because, as you said, I've succumbed to self-inflicted violence and my body just said stop NOW.<BR/><BR/>I'm wonderwoman all right - wondering WTF have I been thinking?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10949041.post-1150315235402076562006-06-14T13:00:00.000-07:002006-06-14T13:00:00.000-07:00Oh, wow, as relevant (or more so others have point...Oh, wow, as relevant (or more so others have pointed out) today as it was when he said it. And boy, can I relate. The finish line for a fundraiser (over a year in planning) is less than 2 weeks away and all of us involved are stressed, stressed, stressed. It is going to be awesome and fun and so worth it, but nerves are getting short and tempers have flared a few times. We're all due for a well-deserved break. <BR/><BR/>When the pace gets frantic like this, I always question why I raise my hand and volunteer. How heavenly it would be to ignore problems and not strive to improve things. It's always a short-lived thought because I could never let things be when they could be better. I am working on limiting how many activities I commit to - sitting on my hands at meetings has been fairly effective. I also go to my garden to revive my inner peace.
