Beautiful post. Your reflections got my own thinking going… which is usually what happens when writing rings true & inspires me. Thank you.

I waited to comment until I had time to really read this and take it all in because it's the kind of post to ponder and absorb, which is the best kind of post, really. I loved this on so many levels. I'm not anywhere near where I thought I'd be if you'd asked me 20 years ago, or 10 or even 5 or maybe 1 - the answer has been different with each - but I'm pretty OK with where I am and where I think I might be going.

Profound. I once did the could of, should of thought process. A friend turned to me in the middle of it and said, you wouldn't be who you are today without all the added extras you could of done without. Point blank at first it made me angry, then it made me truly think. I hate a good share of what made me who I am. If it meant enduring to be me, today the way I am. Then I have to say I wouldn't change a damn thing. It's taken me forever to be ok, with me as I am now. Keeping the door open to continue to find out who you could be - priceless.

“you won’t catch me ruing that space between where I am and where I could be.”

This line. This whole post. Beautiful! Really, your posts are normally well written and moving, but this was a new level.

I was to be many things and I am now so much less and so much more. I walk around muttering to myself that it is the journey and not the destination. Over and over. Trying to convince myself of this truth. Visit crazymumma to read...

Brilliant. Simply brilliant. I never really had a vision of where I wanted my life to be (that wasn't unreasonable), and now I'm making it up as I go along. Visit Natalie to read...I’m Not Really a Dragon

I never would have seen my self in the suburbs, with an 8 to 3 job, two kids, and a husband who loves me. I would have been back-packing in Asia, writing novels in a studio in New York. I would have had a string of lovers, and a belly flat as a board. I wouldn't go looking for that alternate past either. This post was beautiful! Visit conversemomma to read...Holding Patterns
