Precious Sweet Family Time
dymond phillips • Jun 06, 2017
Everyone who knows me knows how much my family means to me. Over the last couple of weeks I've been spending more and more time with my family. More than usual lol, if you know what I'm saying. I am a PHONE JUNKIE, when I'm off work I love kicking back and being on my phone. That doesn't necessarily mean I'm always on a phone conversation, I just enjoy facetime, social media scrolling, texting, and just having my phone in my hand. By me not living in the same state as my family, I try to spend as much time with them when I can, but that isn't always the case. Is it just me or do y'all have a tendency to come home and just want to do nothing? Well that is me, when I'm home I like doing just that especially when I'm not working on my brand or at work. That's my problem, I get so wrapped up into "me" time that I forget about family time. Everyday isn't promised and I'm truly blessed that I have my mother, step father, father, step brother and other major key family members in my life. I sometimes take advantage having all of these people in my life. Just this weekend, I went out to brunch with my family and I was so caught up in my phone that I didn't engage in conversation with them as much as I should have. I have young parents still in their 30s, I'm blessed that we can still travel, go out and do things. Growing up, my mommy always had to remind me to take my head out my own ass. That means to actually care and see what other people have going on. Maybe, because I'm the only child, I get into these moods where I don't want to be bothered with anybody but myself. That isn't the right way to be in life, you should be concerned with other people and happy to enjoy other people's company. You never know when your last day may be so you should spend everyday like your last. I have to remind myself that on occasions when I get into my ME-ME-ME moods. Over the years I've gotten better, but I still have some work to do. Please don't be like me make time for your family and actually engage in that time you get with them you never know when it may be too late!
