Promises, promises

Why is it that the hardest promises to keep are those we make to ourselves? Why is it so easy to put ourselves aside in favor of anything else?
Two weeks ago I’d made myself a small promise. I would start writing. 
I would take 30 minutes out of my morning and dedicate it to exploring the written word, however it decided to present itself. Journaling, ranting, blogging, it doesn’t matter, what mattered was writing.
Two weeks later I’m wondering what happened.
Not only am I physically sick with a cold, I’m a little sick of my actions towards myself.
I keep putting my job first. A job that isn’t that fulfilling! Where I’m constantly challenged by people who seriously try my patience because they don’t listen or pay attention to the people they are supposed to be supporting.
Regardless, I keep finding myself ignoring the one person who really matters. Me.
