It's hard to parse out the magic from the obligation and save only what makes those moments really special to your family year after year.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08644569152748119356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5619147101584456392.post-48694635041967058372012-11-10T12:24:52.465-08:002012-11-10T12:24:52.465-08:00I think you worked your answer out as you wrote.

I would love to see you slow yourself down to a workable pace and more than anything, find time to just plain enjoy your life.<br /><br />I think you are way too busy impressing yourself with all your accomplishments and way too busy to even enjoy what you have done.<br /><br />You need time to reflect now and then and mostly you need time to remember what's really important.<br /><br />♥Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18285427147723972295noreply@blogger.com
