That's life...

Several years ago, while in New York, I saw Gypsy with Bernadette Peters and just now, as I've been listening to my Broadway station on Pandora, the song, "Rose's Turn" from Gypsy came on.  Rose sings about her life and wanting take control of her life and she's making things happen for her instead of living her life vicariously through others.

It totally hit me like a rock, because that is sometimes how I feel about life and it made me want to try and want to say something profound, but really it just reminded me that I need to get back to my philosophy of living a life of no regrets because I know that I'm what I'm supposed to be doing if it's not exactly where I want to be.


But guess what? That's life.


This is my last year in my 30's and while turning 40 next year is a rather daunting thought, I also know I've never been more comfortable in my skin.  I look at my kids and the challenges that they are now and will face in the future and I am so glad that I don't have to deal with them.



So here's the last several months in my 30's.  I'm moving forward with my baby-steps.  Soon I'll be running marathons.
