I’ve Come to Realize…..

On By AngeliaIn In the lives of children, Life is what you make it.

A Facebook tag from my friend, editor, and writer – Elizabeth Irwin.

I hope you don’t mind I brought it to WordPress. It’s actually just the kind of thing I need tonight after a busy weekend that has left me a fuzzy brain and a very sore body.

1. I’ve come to realize that my chest-size…needs a lot of support when jogging.

2. I’ve come to realize that my job….is worth keeping and doing my best at.

3. I’ve come to realize that when I’m driving…it’s best if I’m not late.

4. I’ve come to realize that I need…to have fun, even if I risk ankle injury jumping for joy in a pink castle bounce house.

5. I’ve come to realize that I have lost…the need to control or be controlled.

6. I’ve come to realize that I hate…conflict.

7. I’ve come to realize that if I’m drunk…I’m having a flashback of my first after divorce phase.

8. I’ve come to realize that money….should be handled by persons wiser than me.

9. I’ve come to realize that certain people…will seek to control out of their own fear of failure.

11. I’ve come to realize that my sibling(s)…are more important to me than anything and I hope they know how much I love them.

12. I’ve come to realize that my mom…is a crafty spitfire I adore.

14. I’ve come to realize that when I woke up this morning…I had no idea what was in store for me good or bad.

15. I’ve come to realize that my first love is…loving others.

16. I’ve come to realize that right now I am thinking about…all the blogs I have missed reading the last few days.

17. I’ve come to realize that my dad…both of them are missed and cherished dearly.

18. I’ve come to realize that when I get on Facebook…I like reading status updates and commenting on life happening the best.

19. I’ve come to realize that today…ended quite nicely, laughing at comics, watching bats fly, editing photographs and eating chocolate cake.

20. I’ve come to realize that my best friend(s)…are my safety net.

21. I’ve come to realize that my spouse…I’m marrying in October was meant for me. Truly.

22. I’ve come to realize that I really want to…master photography.

23. I’ve come to realize that life…is what you make it.

24. I’ve come to realize that this weekend…I’ve got to mow the duplex field yard.

25. I’ve come to realize that next weekend…will be here before you know it.

26.I’ve come to realize that my (step)children…are God’s gift to my life.

27. I’ve come to realize that when life gives you lemons….just add sugar to make it right.

  1. I think it is awesome that you have learned all of this. How wonderful to have realized all this before it is too late.

    I am fascinated by #22, because I think the photos of Bridget’s party are so beautiful so you are not far from mastering photography.

    I have come to realize:
    1. My daughter can teach me as much as I can teach her
    2. It is OK to take time for yourself and to not feel guilty
    3. That I am happy, loving my life as a SAHM and the joy it brings
    4. That I like to have fun too but need to take care sliding down the bouncy slide so I don’t get an infected elbow 🙂
    5. Age is just a number – it’s how you feel that counts
    6. Making time for my husband is important and I can do better
    7. I like living in Texas and I like summer by and in the pool
    8. That being a parent changes you in so many unexpected ways
    9. That being a parent makes me value even more my own Dad

  16. Please don’t feel hurt if I don’t fill anything out! I have had a hard day on the golf cocurse, running through the sprinklers and making an utter fool of myself. I NEED SLEEP!

    I will answer a couple, though–
    My chest size is a lot more comfortable since I had reduction surgery.

    I’ve come to realize that when I am driving, I really should hire a navigator.

    I’ve come to realize that when life gives you lemons, use them to soften your elbows and heels.

    I’ve come to realize that when I woke up this morning, I should have stayed in bed.

    That tomorrow truly is a new day.
    That I am the architect of my own life.
    That recovery (from anything) is not something we can do on our own.

    Thanks for posting this!
