I contemplate my life thus far and I have to wonder...WTH has happened to me? I started out with lots of dreams and ambitions for my life, and have found myself giving them up, one by one. The growth I had wanted to experience turned out so much different than what I had planned.
I could blame it on the suffering of hormones. I could blame it on the mental shift I had experienced in high school. But what it really boiled down to was that I settled. Out and out settled for less than what I was worth.
I'm not whining, nor am I complaining; at least not now. I could dish upon the adventures that I did experience; but to be honest, what's done is done. I chose a different path, is all, and really, I am content, for the most part. I am grateful for the opportunity to live, to honor my parents and children with that life. Perfect? far from it. But grateful, most definitely. And hopefully, there is tomorrow and what it has for me.
