I want to be remembered for being a wonderful partner, mother, and human being. I don't want to leave a lot of material goods behind. I want to be remembered as a person who strived to make a difference in this world, a person who was compassionate, honest, loving, and giving. I had a realization last night that I'm never going to become a millionaire by doing what I love. I struggle with money every day, but when I see someone who is struggling worse than I am I always want to give them a hand. It would be great to be paid for doing what I love, but the mothers who come to me are the ones who truly need me and I feel blessed that I am able to help them.

Knowledge is something that everyone has. Everyone learns every day and gains knowledge. Wisdom is knowing how to put that knowledge to good use.

I am always waiting for something. Aren't we all really? I mean, right now there are several things I'm waiting for. I'm waiting to go home from work, make my son dinner, clean my house, call my landlord and get my air conditioner fixed...
I'm waiting until Monday when I get paid, on Tuesday I'll be waiting for pay day again.
I'm waiting until September when my partner gets to take his long awaited vacation. Then I'll be waiting for him to come home. After that I'll be waiting until my conference in October, then waiting for Halloween, then Yule...
I think we all wait for everything, it's a mundane part of life.
But then again, I'm fairly impatient...

   I have a ton of debt and if I think about it I know that I am NOT at peace. I think that's the main thing that really gets me down. If I could turn off my brain for even half a second I would be at peace.

I feel the most free when I'm playing with my 5 year old. I feel like I too am a child again and I can be free and silly. It's the best feeling in the world!
