A moment of thought

guardian_of_hopeI turn 27 this year. I was thinking this because on Sat, Renee turned 29. I was also thinking about all the places I expected to be and what I expected to do with my life.
This life I thought I would have (after realizing that I would never turn into a space alien, move to the Star Wars 'verse and have thirteen children) was supposed to have been fun, doing something I love and worth every minute of it. I was going to have a college degree in...something, and live far, far away, preferrable where it snowed. I was going to New Orleans and Vegas and right about now I would be planning my Alaskan trip.
While I still haven't spent a winter in the snow, I have achieved some crazy goals. I went to college, even if I didn't graduate. I moved out of my parents house to somewhere far, far away, even if it was Miami and not somewhere colder. I traded New Orleans for Key West and Hawaii for Vegas. I published my first novel and I started a business in t-shirt sales and I found a dream to go affter.
Maybe Miami didn't pan out and I haven't seen a snowy winter, and that college degree isn't anywhere near to being in my grasp, I've done some great things in my life.
