Today........is Someday!

Today is Someday......when we were bright eyed innocent little kids we would say....."Someday I'm gonna be, do....have........"....we would dream of being movie stars, or space men or teachers, doctors, firemen, policemen.....the list goes and changes many times!  We grew up thinking we HAD to be something or "someone" and we did....not all of us stayed with the same "I'm gonna......when I grow up" thing.....some us took turns and different roads that led us to where we are today.......Today is our Someday!


Funny, yet sad that it takes til our 40's to know now that even though we are something ....we are not the things that we do....we are the things that are intangeble....we are more than being a mom or a dad, daughter or son, friend or foe, etc.
One of my very wise friends just said..." .we  have always allowed others to define us"  In no way does that make us a victim....it has been a lesson.....it has been a season in our lives.  Some of us are out of that season...others still in it....and then those of us struggling to get out of it....hanging on but wanting to let go...


It is time for US.......time to gather with friends....share our stories, our laughter, our goofiness....sometimes our seriousness....our kindness.....our love....our comfort.....Time to dance on tables, have a bon fire (even if it is in  a fire pit and its not on Pebble Rd....LOL Im only a block off....close enought right?)

Time for a new season.....so in the cold of winter bundle up, make a cup of tea....ahhh....who am I kidding....have that glass of Merlot, shot of tequila, or fine aged whiskey.....and get ready! When the weather warms, and the flowers begin to bud and there are a few little birds starting to wake you early......then my friends we will celebrate OUR season!
Now don't get any crazy thoughts in your heads and go out and buy a sports car or start hanging out past your bedtime!!!  I mean we will become US again.....only we will be wiser, hopefully smarter, kinder, however our time will be more valuable.....I think we will become more choosy in how we spend our time, our hearts, our feelings and our limits.....I think it will become a time of quality.....it will be a gift.....and if we don't slow down we will miss it....We spend a lot of time getting away from our beginning, a lot of time "becoming", a lot of time working on "our future"....on our kids future.....am I right?  As for me ....I know.....it is ok to slow down...it is ok to smell the roses.....it is ok to stay you.....its ok to grow up...it is ok to act like a kid......I want my kids to know that their Mom did it....all of it...whatever "it" is and was happy.....I want them to know it is good to be responsible, but you can still be a kid no matter how old you are....I want them to know that hanging on to their joy and peace is the most important thing along with love.....I want them to learn to enjoy TODAY......and not wait for SOMEDAY......because when someday finally comes.....it leaves you with .........less.....time.


Live, Love and Laugh....Be Present in the moment......God gave you a new 24 hours to get it right!!!!!!!.....Today is your Someday!
