On some levels, it can be.

Look at it this way....

Who is taking care of you right now.....???

Who is taking care of your children right now ?

And I don't mean the physical taking care either.....

I mean supporting them emotionally...

You have a daughter that is at a very critical atage in her life .....

Who is showing her how to care for herself...???

All I am sayin is....Do you want her to grow up and be this attached to another human being ?

Or would you rather SHOW her how to be independent and self-supportive throughout her lifetime ?

Every second WASTED thinking about what if's in your Marriage...

Is time taken away from that time that could be spent nurturing that relationship with them....

How can you be anything for them, if you aren't there for yourself ?

Being there for YOU, is how you can take a step forward and recharge, so that the tank isn't empty for them....


So....

Is THAT being selfish ?

I don't need your answers...

However you and your children do......
