I had a very interesting talk with a friend of mine about life in general. He talked about the things he has done and the things he is waiting to do. Waiting....for kids to get older, for the economy to get better, to drop that 10 pounds he's added, to pay the mortgage off, to get a promtion at work, to get a new truck....Waiting
Now, I know we can't throw our responsibilities out the window, but what happens to our life if we all just sit around and wait? Will we look back and be glad that we waited or will we be sad about the missed adventures? Is there a way to be responsible and still live our dreams?
The dreams I have now are not the dreams of my youth---gave up on that rock star dream a long time ago. LOL! I have seen many of my dreams come true---I have bungee jumped. I have been to Paris. I have loved someone with every ounce of my being and known his love in return. There are more, but those are the biggies!
There are other dreams that I haven't visited in a while and I think it's time that I did. It's time to stop waiting and start living...
