I've spent the better part of the last 5 years being a motivator to others and have enjoyed that role very much. I've spent the better part of my adult life on my own. I was married for 15 years and was basically on my own during that time. I got used to the fact that I was my own person. I did alot on my own or by myself. I worked, raised my children of coarse the kids Dad did play a big role there. I went to the gym and trained by myself. Pretty much did things alone.
I've pretty much come to the realization that you can only truly depend on your self. There may be friends or family who will be supportive here and there. Someone you can make a lunch date with. But I have learned that the only person who seems to completely come through for me is well ME.
It would be nice to come first for a change in someone else's eyes. Heck I would love to put myself first for a change. But that's probably not going to happen for a while. My daughter's needs will always come before my own.
Maybe when they are off to college, which in reality isn't that far off for me. In the meantime I guess 2nd and 3rd aren't so bad.
