Today I need to be selfish. I am exhausted and I need to do what I need for myself. I have been very generous with my time and have done a lot of things over the holidays. Today I am taking a rest away from the cats and doing me things in my own place.

This is a selfish program because if I don't give to myself, I have nothing to give away. I also can't always be centered on myself and excluding others, or I am back being the great I am and totally self-centered. Again, like all things it is about balance. If I keep giving, then I find myself running on empty with not much rhymn or reason to my thoughts and actions.

I am very much a generous person. I give and then give some more. But one thing I am selfish about is my SERENITY. I will do whatever it takes to KEEP it.

Balance is a good way to keep my generosity/selfishness in check. But I really think my giving of time, talents and treasures is much more to the GENEROUS side.
