It has been an earth-shaking, ground-breaking, roller-coaster experience, these last couple of months. If I could simply shout out to the world and ask it to "STOP!!!! I NEED A BREAK!!!!" Sometimes I wish I could be that squirrel (at least I think he is) in the movie "Over The Hedge" who drinks a can of . . . hmm was it cola, coffee or some sort of power drink? Well whatever it was. . . it seemed to him that the world moved in slow motion relative to him . . . and he speeded away watching as the others froze and time stood still. Can I have some of what he had? Can I have time? Time to think? Time to feel? Time to live?
To live. It seems as if to have the luxury of living is too expensive nowadays. Can I live and stop working? To be exactly what I want and simiply be a wife and mother? Can I just work and not be a wife and mother, a daughter and sister, a friend? It's insulting that others view my dream as one inferior to theirs. Who measures the worth of one's life? of one's dreams? How is it measured? Is it by the number of medals and awards one wins? Is it measured by the amount of money one earns? Is it measured by one's position or power? Is it measured by the number of friends one has?
Again, I ask the question. . . Is the there a formula for self-fulfillment? I am a simple soul with dreams not of gold nor fame. I am a sould blessed by God, beyond any earthly measures. For I am loved and I am in love.
