what do i want?
every woman must watch "The Women" - not only my favourite actresses (Meg Ryan, Annette Bening, Candice Bergen, Debra Messing), but so hilarious, yet so real....
amidst the laughter and tears and pain, it does make one think - what do i want?
most of us go through life doing what we think is the RIGHT thing to do.... raise a family, be a good wife, be a good mother..... that we sometimes miss out on doing what we really want!
nothing wrong with doing the right thing......
but some of us get to a point in life where we feel we have lost it - children are independent and flown the coup, husband chooses beer over wife, friends are all but gone or too busy with their families..... and we wonder where we've gone wrong.... why is it that we don't seem to have what we really want..
or do we already have what we want - the satisfaction of good motherhood.... being a great wife, the best in fact....
so why do we want more???

BORING
I am becoming a total bore again... work work work, and nothing but work. don't even have time to catch up on my dvd's, the only time i watch tv now is my sunday favourite shows.
i miss the free and easy, coffee bean hangout times, retail therapy days, having a yarn with friends... and that was only a few months' ago!
so much to do, so much that hasn't been done, and it's the twilight years now.. time seems to gallop faster as one gets older. perhaps our clocks work differently from a 20 year old..
so all you youngsters, below 30, go do what you want, work hard to achieve your goals - it is possible with youth and plenty of time ahead, plenty of energy and stamina... don't wait till you're 50! although it's not too late at 50, it certainly does slow you down a tad.
