Time for
What I Want
I keep hearing the same cliché, over
and over again. From way too many lips I’ve heard, “People make time for what
they want to make time for.” Now, I’m not saying that this isn’t true but…
What if… I want to spend my time
being the best dad I can be and making sure that my kids are good?
I’m just saying, what if… I want
to spend time focusing on my career so that I can make sure that my family
doesn’t have to struggle…ever again?
I know that it’s rare nowadays
but…what if I don’t want to chase a million women, or want every woman that
might be down to lay with me because maybe the only woman I really want is YOU?
What if all I want from you is patience
and understanding for what I’m trying to do? What if you took the time to see
that no matter who may like me, none of them is YOU?
All I want is for you to know
that everything I said about my time, and how I want to spend it is absolutely
true. Just because I don’t get to see you all the time doesn’t mean that I don’t
love you. I’m just working hard to get to a place where time is not issue because
the foundation for what I’m building will be strong enough to give me time to
catch my breath. I can’t do what I need to do for the people I love if I don’t
do this now.
P. S.,
I know I work too much and can
sometimes become distant. It’s not on purpose. I’m just tired of the life I had
and I’m fighting for something different.
but what if this time that you speaking of......never comes?
ReplyDeleteGood question....but, if that time never comes, it would be a tragedy.
DeleteAll you can do is try, and if in the end it is what it is... At least you can say you gave it your all, and you can be satisfied with that. Time is invaluable, where you place it shows where your heart is.
ReplyDeleteThe best time is always now & now can manifest in the form of a kind gesture, a visit, a call, a message, a thought or even a prayer. The problem is, life & relationships are fraught with expectations instead of individuals taking responsibility for their own happiness & just being grateful. I am here right now & want to say... I thought of you today. Thank you for your hard work & the perspectives you share about relationships, love & life! X
