My life is way too busy...
Does anyone else have this problem? I can bet you do. That and coupled with a complete incapability to say "no" when it's needed. So what do you do? Make a choice? What if you really WANT to do all those things because a) some you really enjoy b) others you really HAVE to do.
My situation: I work 9 hours every day (except weekends), work-out most mornings, live in my own house so need to take care of all that shit (bills, shopping, cleaning, bla bla bla), have 2 cats (caring for them, vet trips, etc), my SO who lives with me and I always wish I had more time to spend with him, I also on top of this give lessons part-time (in 2 different subjects), have a music band, a duo, (this all implies weekly rehearsals, gigs, what have you...) and a project to start a small company, and and and...get my drift? I need some guidance...or some comforting words...lol
Can you have it all? I think not, I enjoy all these things but I feel I neglect each one in turn for the other...what to do? Sometimes I feel I might explode...

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
