Reflecting on Life
Now that we have the fun stuff covered in the previous post, now we can talk a bit about what I’ve learned lately. The past week had both my parents’ 40th wedding anniversary and my father’s 60th birthday. I once heard someone say that it doesn’t matter what things you haven’t done; instead you should focus on the things you have done. I know that I held higher career aspirations for myself and that I hoped to be living on my own again, but I can’t see them as failures. I may not have a descent paying job and I may still live with my parents at the ripe old age of 28, but I’ve traveled, I give the most honest advice I can, and I try to be the best friend/sister/daughter/godmother that i know how to be. I’m taking little steps to better myself and my situation starting with a CPR/First Aid course at the end of the month. Those are the little victories I’ve learned to appreciate over the past few years. I might now be completely happy with my life right now, but I have a wonderful support system of loving friends and family that will help me to tackle each new challenge.
