Time out for yourself, totally, for we all need to recharge as well. Sometimes the best time out is to do absolutely nothing, I mean to go blank, mentally and physically.
As far as your wish to be around for a long time, HE/SHE got your message.

L. B. Mek said:

yeah, wise words
to remind us, of life\'s simple truths
before we try and save someone else
we must first insure
we have our own oxygen masks, of survival
in place...!
a wonderful message and read Andy
(my go to farewell song
is a predictable: \'My Way\' by Sinatra;
cynically self-indulgently stubborn
that\'ll be: me
even after I\'m, long gone... lol)

Why yes. And St James Day yesterday, Sunday.
James and John were asking for a high place. Then the other 10 disciples squabbled with them. Jesus taught them of it not being all \'me, me, me\'.
Either that, or He sent me to them, to punish them by singing to them. lol.

Great poem Andy.
