conversations with myself

at the beginning of the year, i told myself that i would create opportunities for more me time.

seems like what i have been neglecting isn't really more me time, but more conversations with myself.

i once read somewhere that one can never be a balanced person without a balance of the public and private self. the private self is where you examine your whole being; these are the moments where you reflect upon your public self, and be brutally honest about the usually spontaneous and unconscious thoughts that have guided your actions in the day. it is not even time inbetween appointments or during travel where you think about the things to settle and what you want to acheive in the day, but a time of asking yourself the questions you don't want to be addressing only 30 years down the road when you are done with your career, or when you meet God.
