How does this relate?
One of my favorite quotes:
"You make what seems like a simple choice: choose a man or a job or a neighborhood--and what you have chosen is not a man or a job or a neighborhood, but a life."---Jessamyn West
I have this quote taped up on my bathroom mirror among some others, but I've found that this quote is so very true for me... I grew up in the Midwest(KCMO) and left there for my job TWA airlines and was based in NYC then married a local guy there...when my whole beingness 'really' wanted to be in California where it's warm...so life happens, by our choices and we make so many choices without fully understanding the full consequences...so I made a life somewhere I really didn't intend to be...
Thankfully, I've had another life given to me, my last half of my life that I can create in the form I really choose it to be! I got my beach house, my painting career, my Bambi, my health, my daughters...and my friends....what else can someone ever want?
I'd love to hear everyone's story about how they got from there to here...???
Now I think I'm ready for that Bailey's if there's enough to share...
