Who is the “you” you wish to be?

This is the question Jamie asks today.

Wow! I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up!

I know I am now 49 and still feel that I am the same person I was at age 16.
Only much wiser.
Some times.
To me life is like changing shoes.
Shoes are responsibility's
Work , play, MOM, Now Grand mom.
At this time I just want to be barefoot and free to play.
Barefoot Pictures, Images and Photos
Free of responsibility's
Free to create a positive happy life.
Free to shed the ties that bind me.
Free to travel and dream.
I assume I should buy a lottery ticket to pay for my fantasy.
For now I am happy just being me.

Have a wonderful day and remember to laugh and play.

Sounds great, dear Grammy! Just like it should be!

Well, I hope we meet in that line for the lottery ticket!
I've got the same problem as you-I never did figure out what I wanted to be when I grow up. Happy, I guess. And I am. Hope all your dreams come true!

Hey Grammy,

Thanks for reminding me of my college days when I went barefoot (in florida) almost every day weather permitting. Yes, let's kick off restraining shoes and feel the earth! I wish for you to always feel like you are barefoot and to a year of travel and dreams.

Sounds like a perfect wish to me. What Grammy wishes for, I wish she gets!

Mark said...

If you can be happy simply being than all the rest is icing on the cake! Focus on what you have and not what you perceive to be missing and you will know bliss.

Kick off those shoes girl!

I too feel I am the exact same person I was at 16 ... a little wider in the bottom, a little wiser in the head ... but the same soul.

Same here, I'm 52 and I tell everyone I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up.

Unknown said...

Hi, Grammy. You know, I think, though, that even though you're the same person you were at 16, you're much more comfortable with that person now than when you were 16. Life is like that, I think.

At least that's how it was for me. I needed to learn to be myself and not be ashamed for it.

As you wish for yourself, so I wish for you also.
