Back into life

Well here it is, 2012. All the holiday plans are done and history. As I sit here writing this my mind is focusing on my return to work tomorrow and the end to the vacation I have been on. I wish I could say I managed to get a lot of things done while I was off, but I managed to rest more than anything else. Now I wish I had a couple of these days back to be productive. I have equal parts or dread and resolve about facing the back to work reality. I feel blessed to be employed yet wish I had more time to be home. My year has started off very full and busy with doing a radio program and volunteer work with youth. It is rewarding, challenging, scary and sometimes taxing when adding the rest of life in the mix. Tomorrow, I will begin the balancing act of it all. Home,job and volunteer work. Each one is an important facet in my life and I feel a responsibility to each one. I am hopeful that I can juggle it all and make the difference I desire to make. So...here is to the stepping back into life. I am doing so with goals to inspire others and give back something. To be able to say....I was here.
