One Day at a time has become my new motto.
I used to think I had my life planned out (to a certain degree). As I got older I became a little more aware of who I was and what I wanted but I am finding that change is a continual thing and what you think you want changes often. So instead I have decided, not to decide.
I am going to keep options open and just see where life takes me instead of having me worry about where my life is going to go. These past few years I have become more involved in activities and met a lot of friends. Not all of them remain in my life but each one has left some type of impression on me.
At 40, I still do not know what I want to be when I grow up but I am realizing that's okay and I don't necessarily have "be" anything. I am not going to put any more stress on myself worrying about what has not yet happened or where I thought I should be at this point in my life, instead I have become open to being open to things and letting things just fall into place.
I have had a good run so far and I have all of the major blessings in my life. I would like to start volunteering more and be a better mother, sister, friend, lover etc. The unknown is very scary bur I think I will look back and realize this was the best part of my life.
