Taking care of myself not others

I have been so ill lately and this was the reason , I am just learning to start thinking of me , I was told to keep a diary and write about me in it , You just don't realise how hard it is not to just write about yourself as it is always your hubby , your family , your parents , your friends , Start a diary and write ABOUT YOU it will help I promise you xx take care

I feel that way quite often. I am inclined to bust my hump to help people, and I seldom get anything in return (not even a thank you) and it leaves me more and more jaded everytime. My latest realization is that I worry WAY too much about what people think of me. I'm so darn tired for being Mary Sunshine about everything and to everyone. I need to stop "keeping face" and start being true to my own emotions and heart.

It's so easy to get into being that way. I used to feel that way a lot, but now I've learned to be kinder to myself. One thing I've learned is that by not taking care of ourselves, and doing things so much for others, only leads to us getting tired, worn down, and sick. I now live a kinder, gentler life towards myself, and have learned to say 'no' when I need to.

yes even i feel the same at times....infact i dont like myself for overdoing with people. this is one aspect in me that i would like to change a bit(though its difficult to change oneself). i have actually realized that the world is too bad ...than i thought it to be....and if you cannot change the world...begin to change yourself. though i know its quite easy to pen down but very tough to get into that....but im trying...! may be i have mostly encountered bad people only ..so may be its my misconception that the world is bad..but i know a lot of good people do exist here....though i dont say that im not happy..im..what i feel is that you do good to others without expecting or looking for favours from them..in return...but what if some people start taking you for granted!didnt you ever feel so!
