Coulda, Shoulda, Wouldas......

  Sorry I have not posted in a while, I guess life started getting my way, or I LET IT. I have been starting a lot of great new ventures, and I am hoping many more on the horizon and in my future. It is funny how the more I get the chance to do what I love, the more I want to do. This morning I was in the guest seat as a guest, and not the host. I did well, I mean I do have a bit of control issues, so being in the guest seat was a lot easier than I expected. I have been interviewed before and represented companies in an educator position, but you know I have a tendency to over guess and over think things a lot, and then after I think to myself what is wrong with you?
  Something I have recently gained clarity with is the fact that life is too damn short. I am the first to say we spend too much time dwelling in the past and preparing for the coulda, shoulda, woulda futures that may or may not come our way. I am a believer in planning for the future, but not at the expense of missing or gliding through a perfectly amazing present. 
  As I have got older, so has my circle of friends, and with this the age of the group has also increased. This brings hopefully wisdom and experience and the memories of a full life, but for many of us it brings regrets and frustration for not pursuing our dreams and aspirations. I think we are all somehow blinded by the idea that we have plenty of time to live and get things done, and so many of us utilize that back burner in life where we shelf so many dreams and things on our bucket list. Many dear friends of mine have left this world way too early, and in many cases not achieving all they, in my mind should have because they kept waiting. I am not sure why we just wait.. Wait for a better time, a time when we have more time, a time when there is less stress, a time when finances are better. What I have learned is there is not good time to live your life better and fully.... We just need to do it..embrace it... ago for it!
