So, what's the point?
But I guess the point of this blog isn't just about surfing, although that is a big part of it. It's about how I, as a mom-wife-freelance consultant-daughter-sister,etc., can take better care of myself and incorporate my interests into my life while balancing it with family and work and everything else. It's about how you can take up a new hobby and keep up with it and not let it just be a fleeting thing. For me, that thing is surfing. I know that if I were at a different stage in my life, I would completely immerse myself in surfing, spending time reading about it, talking to other people about it, training, and practicing.
One of the things I struggle with is finding and maintaining my own identity. I think that many moms experience this - how your life and identity can often become subsumed once you start a family. Suddenly everything revolves around caring for the baby - as it should - but it's easy to lose a sense of yourself. But among all of these changes and changing priorities, how do you find and maintain your own identity in addition to being a mom and a wife? How do you continue to nourish your own soul, identity and interests without seeming to be selfish?
