You would think it would be natural. I have had some situations come up in the past few weeks that really made me shake my head. I was shaking my head at someone who frustrates me to DEATH! However, the more I thought about the lack of priorities (healthy ones, anyway) in his life, the more I was forced to look at my own.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;I must admit that sometimes I lose sight of what is important. Yet, when it really comes down to it, pretty much all I do in life is a result of where my priorities lie. When I really took time to consider this, I was actually quite pleased, knowing that I am doing a pretty good job.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663366;"&gt;I am seeking to grow, learn, and experience.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663366;"&gt;My love for God, inspires me, directs me, and sustains me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;color:#663366;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;My love for John, brings peace, shelter, and laughter.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;color:#663366;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;My love for my kids brings hope, joy, and wonder.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;color:#663366;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5227574482984209186" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_xjtIvt7s0xs/SIwTS58riyI/AAAAAAAAACU/McHAwTe_IHE/s200/P1010299.JPG" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:times new roman;font-size:180%;color:#663366;"&gt;My priorities are in line.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/36577679-7354001297499398082?l=michellestam.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://michellestam.blogspot.com/feeds/7354001297499398082/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=36577679&amp;postID=7354001297499398082' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36577679/posts/default/7354001297499398082'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36577679/posts/default/7354001297499398082'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://michellestam.blogspot.com/2008/07/my-priorities.html' title='My Priorities'/><author><name>Michelle</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09777542288037637757</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='24' src='http://bp1.blogger.com/_xjtIvt7s0xs/SIrMpziCHII/AAAAAAAAAAM/OtbKNVDz8go/S220/P1010258.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_xjtIvt7s0xs/SIwTS58riyI/AAAAAAAAACU/McHAwTe_IHE/s72-c/P1010299.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36577679.post-7982341798545075792</id><published>2008-07-26T01:21:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-07-26T01:25:20.148-07:00</updated><title type='text'>New Beginnings</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="center"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:verdana;font-size:85%;"&gt;I have been thinking about this stupid blog for almost 2 years now.
