Lately...

Lately, I have been bombarded with millions of emotions - good and bad! Feeling down with lots of discouragement from many causing ridiculous tears.....complete happiness for special friends (my old roommate) and family (little brother) getting engaged! Sweet friends having precious little babies and other getting that great news that they are expecting! Watching celebrations of little ones with birthdays! Irritations from work - students, parents, coworkers, whoever! I'm just getting to the point where I need a major retreat! One tiny light is shining at the end of one tunnel - SPRING BREAK! I just need a break from life in general. Lately, I have been feeling like I am on a conveyor belt and my choices have been taken from me unwillingly. A friend recently mentioned how she wanted to savor each and every day! I want that so badly, but I can't seem to find the "pause" button in life. How can I slow down this train to enjoy the simple things in life?
