SENIOR CITIZEN'g CORNER If you're feeling like you're too busy during the days and evenings, take a close look at yourself. Try and figure out just why you're so busy. Many people race the clock because they've become too in volved--they haven't set limits on activities. The time and energy they'd like to use for leisure or personal interests are taken up by other commitments. Evaluate your involvements and weed out those less impor tant ones. Some people, though, are too busy because they want to be. Being busy makes many people feel needed. Others keep busy as a way of avoiding personal relationships. If every minute of the day is spent running from one activity to another, they don't have to worry about people gettihg too close to them. Being busy is also seen as a security blanket by many obser vers. Hangups and fears can be hidden under the cloud of con stant "busyness."
