Deep thoughts ….

I still remember pulling out of my driveway  from my college apartment and waving goodbye to my friends…  It’s official – I am a college dropout.  Driving away in my Honda Accord with dreams of doing something big with my life. I think my original plan was that I was going to be a movie star on Days of our Lives. Pretty comical now that I think about it, primarily because I am paralyzed with fear when it come to speaking in front of groups. Anyway, for whatever reason – I thought that by being an actress on a tv show would mean that I was “someone” important.  I was convinced that there was more for me to do..something that would make an impact on the world. Fastforward to 2011… 16 years later and here I am – mama of two beautiful kids (still hoping for one more) and married to the most amazing man – and it occurs to me that this was all I ever needed  I had no idea that creating a family filled with unconditional love and laughter was the one thing that I was looking for. On a scale on 1-10 – my life falls in at a solid 6 in regards to the obstacles I have been challenged with… but  I now get it…. sometimes people have to go through different struggles to get to the other side… and only when you get to that other side will you discover the secret behind true “in your soul” happiness. One of my dear friends had a cancer scare recently and as we were waiting to hear about the biopsy result – I said to her..”If it comes out clear – this scare is  your gift. You were given a brief glimse into a frightening and scary prognosis. Your perspective on what is truly important has been changed”. She ended up receiving good news.. but we both know that she will never be the same.
