What could I do more of? I feel like I am lacking in so many areas of life. Nothing so much as to be a problem, but many things where I just want to be doing better than I am.
- Helping/supporting/being there for my wife. I do some, but not nearly enough. Not even close.
- Helping/supporting/being there for my step kids. Again, I do what I can but they are so far away from us now it’s very difficult. Any time there is the slightest hiccup in their lives I just want to drop everything and go running and I just can’t do it when they are a couple of hundred miles away.
- Helping/supporting/being there for my extended family. This mostly includes my father, but also in a big way it includes my niece and my three nephews. I never feel like I am there for any of them. I chip in for my father when I can, but not nearly enough, and as for the four kids, am I the worst, most useless uncle on Earth? I think so. I am doing an abysmal job at being an uncle.
- Helping/supporting/being there for my staff at work. I think I am doing an okay job as a supervisor, but I could be doing so much more.
Those are the big ones. There are a slew of other areas where I could be doing more that fall under personal, mental well being kind of things. More music, more photography, more travel, more exploration, more community stuff. Those sorts of things. They are clearly secondary to family and work though.
So I guess my answers for today’s daily writing prompt are pretty much the same as most of my prompt answers. Family, work, personal things. I feel like a bit of a broken record, but they are the most important things in my life, you know?
