Go Fish!
I tend to not post anything too personal online since I like my personal life to be private and, well, personal. But I've been thinking about a few things lately and just wanted to send them out into the great void of the internet.
Do I love my life?
I love my husband. I love my family. I love many people in my life and many aspects of my life. But is this the exact life that I want to be living? What if I woke up tomorrow and could do anything I wanted to do, without fear and without limitations, what would I be doing? And if the honest answer ends up as something ELSE than what I really plan on doing tomorrow - why? Because, I really CAN do anything and fear is only in the mind of the beholder, right?
Now, I don't have any sort of great ambition (at least my ambitions may not seem great to others) but I do have some pretty strong desires and dreams. But will the yellow brick road I'm on now take me to the Emerald City? And I bet that the road I'm travelling on now is probably leading to someone else's dreams. Wouldn't that be funny?! Hmmmm....
What if we (yes, I'm dragging you into this now, too) all got together and came clean on what we REALLY wanted to be doing or learning and played kind of a massive Go Fish game: Do you have any skills in fashion design? Who knows how to sail? Do you know someone in the ____ field that I could meet? No? Go Fish! And we could play and play until we all had matches. Hmmmm....
