So Glad It Is Friday??What!!!!!

There has to be more to life than just waiting on Fridays,working 40 hour weeks, 2 hour daily commutes,attitudes, screaming children etc..... I will be 40 this year and this is so not how I want to spend the rest of my life doing this day in and day out waiting for retirement. I have to go higher make a commitment to myself to work toward my passion so I can enjoy life everyday. I want to go to "life" not just go to "work". Life is beautiful and I want to spend most if not all enjoying it- not dreading it. So I have decided to make a change for me, for my family. A life filled with joy will spill over to others, but a life with resentment will do the same. So the choice is mine ladies and gentlemen. It's my move----
Details to follow as I begin to "live"....

Wow!!!

While watching "Help Haiti Now" was so heavy and even as I weeped during the entire time I watched I still cant take in all of what really happened. Their reality is their hell right now. However it does give them an opportunity to have more than they have ever had. It is amazing how it takes a great tragedy and many sacrifices to make things better most of the the time. That country had nothing and was living on a level that was unbelievable in 2010. So this tragic event has put a spotlight on a country that needed it a long time ago, this will allow them to get better homes, water, and so much more that would have taken years or may not even had happened if not for the earthquake that took place on that day. I am embarrassed to say I did not know that Haiti was the first black independent country. This world is filled with so much history that I have know knowledge of. This gives me an opportunity to dig deep and study to find out more about this world I live in and the people in it. I want to go to Haiti to help to do whatever I can, I look at the images and I see myself, my daughter, my mom, my dad, my brother,my nieces and my heart is broken. We need to embrace the country and their people and help them heal themselves and their land. Tragedy shows how when we are in pain we are all the same- we want to be loved, helped and understood. Help your neighbor whether next door or in a land far far away because we are all one....
