Ever stopped and think how much time is spent trying to please others? Why do we do this, for acceptance, for recognition, or is do we really enjoy it? Some times I really do enjoy seeing the happiness of others and it makes me happy. But yet, somehow something is missing when we do it all for others. At some point we have to do what makes us happy. Finding what it is or what things it is we really want from life, from others, our jobs, our family or the main thing is what we really want from ourself.
Is what I am doing going to be all there is for me? Recently aswering some silly questionaire it asked where do you see yourself in 5 years. For what seems like a simple question is difficult to answer.
If I have learned anything in 2009, it was that the life that I thought I wanted is not necessarily what I need or truly desire. I don't want the cookie cutter life, I won't ever do things just because everyone else thinks it is the way it is suppose to be. I want to wake up each day and feel at ease with the choices I make and the actions I have taken.
This next year I hope to be able to concentrate on that question and find the answer that best suits me. For me, and only me. I spent many years being a daughter, a wife and a mother. Now I have the opportunity to be me. And its time to see what that really means.
