Abandoning Dreams

Happy 40th babe!

I watch this YouTube podcast, I see this family of six kids, a mom and a dad, and I see them having so much fun.  I think to myself I wonder if I will have as much fun with my plan for life.  I wonder will I regret my choices.  

A few months ago I embarked on one of the first and major points to my life plan.  I travelled off island for the first time in close to 20 years.  I was on a plateau for a long time, but now I'm going up on an incline.  I attribute my success first to God and the teaching thereof.  Secondly, to the wisdom I learned from my mother and sister.  And lastly, to living a consciously responsible and frugal lifestyle.  I truly believe and I have proved the decisions I make today shape my tomorrow.  The goal that I had to go Montserrat came to fruition.  I was brave and I went even on my own and I had a really good time!  So in a nutshell I am saying that even though I may have had to take a detour and also had to change some of my dreams, that doesn't mean that these adjusted plans can't be just as beneficial to me and that I can't enjoy them just as much. Life happens and we must change our plans, but that doesn't mean we can't necessarily be just as fulfilled.  So I will continue on my current life plan.  I will enjoy it to the fullest and if I have to make an adjustment I will.  And I will enjoy the adjustments I may necessarily have to make.  I will enjoy the bumps in the road as they present themselves.  I already have and will continue to enjoy this new life plan.  This year commemorates my 40th year and this one will be the best.  For the best is yet to come.
