You asked…I answered :-)

Close your eyes and imagine we are together sitting at my kitchen table
having a coffee/tea/drink (your choice) and we start talking.
You ask and I answer:

I am: a work in progress always trying to better myself… still a very long way to go…

I know: that I still have so much to learn… and in reality know nothing…

I want: inner peace of mind and being able to have a full night sleep…sleep is what I really want…

I think: too many thoughts at the same time… going in too many directions…

I have: the children I did not know I deserved and I am very thankful for them…

I dislike: my inner critic, always putting me down no matter how hard I try…

I miss: telling my parents how much I loved them and hearing them saying it back to me…We did not do “I love you’s” when I grew up…

I fear: following my mother’s path and getting early onset Alzheimer’s, diabetes, a brain tumor and a couple of strokes…

I feel: like this year is the beginning of a new chapter for me…still wondering what it might be…

I hear: my inner whisper telling me to keep going in the direction of my dreams…

I smell: the hand lotion I rubbed my hands with, just  a few moments ago…

I crave: hugging my sister so tight to give her the strength she needs for the next few years…

I search: for my purpose on this earth and wonder what it might be…do you wonder too?

I wonder: what made me so lucky to be living the life I live…

I regret: not pursuing my passion of languages even further and study at least one Asian language…

I love: words and  images, watching the dance they perform in my head at any given time…

I care: deeply about the people I love…try to let them know how much I do, as often as I can…

I am always: trying to be pleasing everyone which is not the right way to be…learning it the hard way…

I worry: about not having taught my children enough for them to handle whatever comes their way…

I remember: the smell of Lavender so strong in the air, on lazy Summer days at my aunt’s in the south of France…

I sing: every chance I get, and very loud when I am driving all alone…care for a ride? 😉

I argue: about how the laundry is washed… instead of appreciating that he thought of doing it…

I write: to quiet the voices inside, the ones with the ideas, the ones I have to listen to…

I lose: patience when I see injustice and unfairness…it makes me very upset…

I wish: peace was inside each and every heart  living on this planet… so the world would be a very different place…

I listen: Well how can I say…… this is something I am still in the process of learning…slowly getting better at it 😉

I can usually be found: running around at work or at home…juggling too many balls…needing a few more hours per day…

I am scared: time is running out… so I try to do what I love to do now… instead of waiting for later to come…

I need: to trust myself and others more…remember…a work in progress…

I forget: more than I used to…writing things down is helping me to solve this one…

I am happy: to be alive, healthy and full of energy…and most of all to be learning everyday…doing what I love most…

Here is my inspiration: Thank you Vicky for making me think so much today…I love this list…
