ok so I've been thinking lately. ever since my son was born its been about him. my FB is littered with over 2000 pictures of him and I down there would be 30 of me. (without him anyway)
one of my girlfriends asked me today(she has a 7 month old) she asked "why cant your FB be about you?"
to which i answered that my child is my life and in sharing the accomplishments of my child I am sharing my life. also who really want to know about me anymore? since my child was born its always been about him. its not about me anymore.
but my dilema is that she should know this. she has a child of her own. and yet she still has a selfish side to her (not selfish in a bad way) she still has thoughts of her own. that dont involve her child. i don't.
its just different and i was wondering what your thoughts were. i "feel" more than others. love happiness sadness. everyone else seems to me... i don't know. half that.
please don't interpret this as me "tooting" my own horn cause i'm not. i've been thinking alot lately about how i react to people around my child even my own husband. I'm starting to think its unhealthy. i love my child more than life itself. here is never a time in the day that he isn't on my mind and it is literally painful to be away from him.
your thoughts please.
