“Add it to the list”.

The list is becoming rather long. And I couldn’t be happier.

I never get tired of reading about people like this who just go for it, listening to others as they go but still running out what they have in their heart to do. I'm wrestling with this right now and have learned that you have to roll with the process, that sometimes the waiting is a necessary precursor to the action that will soon become apparent.

Thank you! @ Alice - I'm glad you enjoyed it. Austin and Madison are like brother and sister I think :) Thank you for the comment! @ Dan - People often think I have a southern accent. Don't know why, but if it makes me more wise, it's all good. ;) @ Rosie - that's the quote that stuck with me too. @ Eric - Oh, I agree. Since I started my new job, I've become increasingly comfortable with the concept of failure and making mistakes. You have to be. Thanks for the comment! @ Scott - Love the quote from Edison.

So many expect that things should be easy and that they should succeed immediately because they heard of this ONE person who did something on their first try. They don't realize that this is the exception, rather than the rule. Think of how unsatisfying life would be if you had total success the first time you did something.
