Always have some thing to look forward to....

This simple bit of advice from a co worker has literally changed my life. I use to be a free bird soaring the sky never landing longer than to eat and sleep. I went wherever the wind took me and I loved it. Now my life has changed dramatically. I am a mother, a wife, a full time employee, and a full time student. Those things do not leave much room for soaring free. I must keep my feet on the ground to provide and nurture my family. I don't not regret the change in my life but do sometimes miss the freedom I once had. So now I always have something to look forward to. Even if its a girls night, a date with my husband, a trip...ANYTHING! If I have something to look forward to it keeps me in a positive state instead of waking up and thinking, "Here we go again." What this does for a girl like me is keeps my mind in the clouds, my imagination alive, my inner child free while my feet are on the ground because the show must go on. I refuse to surrender to, "this is it" and settling for a mundane routine of work, sleep, eat, feed, wash, fold, clean, tuck, earn money to just have to give it all away......
