Out of sorts...and sorting it out

I think I got my priorities right...at least today.
I think what I had to do, and put aside forcibly, what I needed to do.
It was a real eye-opener that I wonder if I had been blind-sided all these while.

And today, affirmation came in other forms.
First, from a child whose voice I had missed so much.
His ship had arrived at a port of call, and it was so comforting to know that I am one of the few people that he called.

There are other major decisions that I have to make.
The first is to 'surrender' and accept that something had to give.
For the sake of the loved ones, I am getting back a maid...more to allow me to spend time with my kids and other half.

Two years...that is the target I set.
After I have put things in order, I will step down, and let the younger ones take over.
That, would be the right thing to do.

Dear God,
Each time I take things for granted, you nudge me back to reality.
Help me be strong to face the internal challenges I face,...so that I may grow closer to You and Your Will.
Ameen
