I turn 27 next month. No, that's not old and i'm not complaining but it's got me thinking. There are so many things I've wanted to do in my life that I haven't and i'm wondering if i ever will at this point.
I want to go on safari in Africa.
Sip espresso at a cafe in Italy.
Drink a glass of wine at an outdoor bistro in France.
Gaze at the pyramids in Egypt.
Learn photography.
Own a pottery wheel.
Find a career....and so many others.
It seems now that my world is taking care of one child, planning for another and trying to stay ahead of the always impending financial debt that i won't be doing any of these things anytime soon.
I never understood why 'adults' said to enjoy your youth. Well, now I understand. Responsibility. On a brighter note I am a good wife and mother. I would never run away from the life I have created. But a vacation would be nice.
I am completely and utterly proud of you!!! I am so glad to see you writing. Please keep at it. Life is a journey. I am so excited to meet who and what walks across my path, I know you will come to embrace this too.
