I am poor at managing.
I do it- at least, I try- but I'm not very good at it.
And I'm still learning to enjoy things that I'm not good at doing.
Which means I strongly dislike Managing.
The Things To Manage that I hold in my hand feel immense.
Whether God-ordained or self-inflicted,
Through choice or through circumstance,
Everywhere I turn, I face Things To Manage-
Time to manage
People to manage
Money to manage
And Things. So Many Things.
Whether I chose to willingly reach for and grasp these Things to Manage
or they were tossed into my lap,
Here they are.
All. These. Things. To. Manage.
I am but a child.
A forty-one year old child,
still trying to find my keys.
Somehow, I went from being The Youngest in my family
to being The Oldest in my family-
it's not half as special a spot as my sister asserted it to be. 😜
I don't want to spend my lifeManaging Things
Managing Time
Managing People
Managing Money
I just want to live
and let others do the managing
(of everything except me, of course).
Maybe someday, I'll manage to become a Better Manager.
In the meantime, may God help me become a Better Me.
All the things I try to teach my children about executive functioning,
are things I need to work on, in me.
Also, of moderate significance, the font of choice for this post is "Shadows Into Light 2"
