Me-Time

My husband is on a business trip. That means I am alone most of the time as my son's school hours is long. My friends and family will always give me a sorry look when I tell them about me being alone. According to some people, life comes to a stand still when their other half is not around them. How can some one be so dependent on others to spend their time?
They say loving yourself and enjoying your own company is the best gift to yourself. There is so much to do and sometimes I think 24 hours is not enough. I was looking for  craft ideas for my son when I came across one lady's blog - 'No Time For Tea Party' ! Wow, thats right! She said it in four words.
I couldn't stop agreeing with Emirates Airlines latest advertisement -Mastering the Art of Me-Time. I hunt for this time when I can do things for myself. Lately soaking myself in a hot bath tub and relaxing the way I used to do in onsen, is my way of mastering my Me-Time.

  1. Very well said 'me-time' - the most important time or us to look into the inner me :). I feel sorry for those who are busy in 'your-time' looking into others life and judging them.
    I love reading your articles and its my new hobby ;). Keep it going. And I would like to thank you for helping me value my 'me-time' two years ago. It surely has made me a better person.

  2. Thanks for your comment Megha! It motivates me. I know, how people around us are always judging us on the basis of our outer appearance and not valuing the inner beauty. I just can't relate to them any more.

  3. HI, Meenu-san,
    The last one month was really hectic and I didn't have much Me-time but I did enjoy your articles in between :) Yes, these articles are really like you, profound and wise yet many people would empathize it too. (a bit review-like comment!? ha ha) As you know, it's Golden Week here. Daniel is out with his friends. I'm enjoying "Me-time" reconnecting with my dear friend like this: It is a luxurious moment :)
