We all have our own set of priorities. Whether it’s in our home
life, profession, or hobby, how we set our priorities depends on our inner
drummer. You know, the saying:
For some, keeping a spic and span house is a main priority.
I knew a lady, each week she would take every glass, plate, bowl ~ everything ~
out of her cabinets and wash, dry, and put back. Needless to say, everything in
her house was spotless. God rest her soul, a “spic/span” home was her main
priority.
Quite the opposite, I’ve run across a few people that put even
the slightest bit of basic housekeeping on the bottom of their list of priorities.
That’s okay. That’s their drummer.
I fall somewhere in between.
It’s the same with professions and hobbies. I know the
saying...
applies here as well.
For those obsessed
with their professions, however, I do miss the friendships, the both-way conversations
we once had.
Because my priorities may differ from someone else’s doesn’t
mean they are any better, or less, than theirs. Turnaround is fair play. I find
myself guarded, having to protect my priorities from some looking to take
advantage.
I’ve learned ~ if it’s important, really important, people will
find a way to get it done.
Maybe, a temporary shift in priorities?
