Through the Mist

I like my life as it is, so I probably wouldn’t change the time I live in, but if I could take a short trip to the past or the future I would probably choose the past because I have a general idea of what I would find there, as I have no idea what to expect in the future. I would go back to a time of knights and maidens, and take a peek if things really were as described in books. What can I say, I’m a romantic. I would like to find out if there really were men that were ‘knights in shining armor’.

I suppose I’ve been lucky enough in my life so far as I don’t have any unsettled scores I would have the need to resolve. I can’t think of a single person that has wronged me in a way that I would be compelled to think about confronting them. I’m the kind of person that doesn’t leave things undone, so if I needed to confront someone I usually did it right away. I guess that if I thought really hard I could think of someone, but if I have to think really hard then it isn’t that big a deal, is it?

What I miss about being a kid is the lack of worry in life. When you are a kid the biggest thing you worry about is whether or not you are going to miss your favorite cartoon, or have enough candy to last until the end of the show. Being contempt with what you have, and not always wanting what you can’t have, toys don’t count, who doesn’t always want more toys. Sadly, as you grow up those things simply aren’t possible, because as you become a parent you tend to make sure that your child hasn’t got a care in the world, same as you in their age. You can’t have it both ways.

My primary goal is to make sure that my daughter has everything she needs in life, so far so good because all she needs right now is lots of toys and candy, she’s two. As time goes by thing will get harder as her needs grow, how will I cope then only time will tell. My desire, and biggest goal, is to make sure that she has her own home some day, and that my husband and I provide it for her. There some other small goals that I haven’t fulfilled so far, but I plan to in the near future, is travel more. I don’t want my little girl to grow up not seeing at least some of the beautiful world that surrounds us. I wouldn’t mind seeing some of it myself.
