HI Annie,
I just came across your post and read it with great interest, its amazing the different emotions we go through and how it effects each of us.
I had many people pose the question to me "am I going to make changes in my life"? I felt like it was expected of me, and most daunting was people assuming I would give up my job. I work for a large global corporate and have worked hard my whole life, I think people assumed I would have a sudden need to stay home!
I love my job and for me I couldn't wait to get back, to be amongst those people again, to feel the surge of doing a great job and the satisfaction at the end of the day of being productive. However, I have made changes, I will no longer put work 1st, I will holiday more withmy husband, make more time for my family and friends and I will do a large fund raiser per year, something to give back.
Whatever your choices are, let them be your own, do not be pushed by others and their judgements.
Good luck
Donna
