I think many people who choose not to let society dictate what their life should consist of or who they should be will find this helpful, including myself. I am a woman of "childbearing age" who has choosen to be CFBC (child-free by choice). I live an extremely happy, fulfilling, satisfying life. In fact, I still pinch myself as My life is MY Dream!

Just whe...This is a really wonderful post, Shannon. Just when I feel like I'm getting off target you post something that pushes me in the right direction. There are so many distractions in life that can deter us from what we really want. And people get deterred, not because they really want the other thing, but because they are told they should have that other thing. Many times those things don't fit into our life or lifestyle.<br /><br />I was most struck by "The beautiful gift of our one and only life is that the choices we make every single day determines our contentment. Choose wisely." It also reminds me of this quote by Steve Jobs, "Focusing is about saying no. And it comes from saying no to 1,000 things to make sure we don't get on the wrong track or try to do too much. We're always thinking about new markets we could enter, but it's only by saying no that you can concentrate on the things that are really important." While it's important to say "yes" to life and go for it, it's equally important to say no to the things that distract us from our true selves and true potential.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15201110351594406173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6310399481533841878.post-3359232063977507462013-02-11T10:32:49.773-08:002013-02-11T10:32:49.773-08:00A social worker friend who also does private thera...A social worker friend who also does private therapy sessions once told me this: The way you do anything, is the way you do everything. It's a simple yet profound statement that is along the lines of this post and reminded me of that wisdom. Every small thing we do in life adds up to the whole that is our life and what quality we choose to give it.Thanks for a wonderful blog! - HopeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6310399481533841878.post-21650603172112484722013-02-11T08:00:03.263-08:002013-02-11T08:00:03.263-08:00This is great Shannon, great things to think about...This is great Shannon, great things to think about, so true.Splendid Markethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16611781081628569516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6310399481533841878.post-9137812833031180382013-02-11T07:56:40.614-08:002013-02-11T07:56:40.614-08:00Lovely post Shannon, especially love the last few ...Lovely post Shannon, especially love the last few paragraphs.
