Wow

Wow! I lost the password to this blog a looong time ago. Then I just kinda forgot about it. Must be old age creeping up on me. How delightful, though, to go back and read thoughts from two or three years ago!

What's been going on since then? Lots. But not much of anything really. I am happy. Happier than I have ever been? Maybe. I don't know. I have been blessed to have had some very happy times in my life. What I can definitely say now though, is that I am as happy now as I have ever been. I am comfortable with myself and my life. I have dreams I still hope to achieve. I have dreams for Joseph. Dreams for myself. Dreams for the world.

There comes a time in everyone's life when you step back and evaluate where you are, what you have accomplished, and where you are heading. I believe everyone has regrets. Anyone who says they don't are either trying to fool you or fool themselves. The key is to limit the regrets you have. I have learned to live with the regrets I have. Sometimes, things are just out of your hands. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself. And Heaven knows, you have to learn to forgive others. Not always the easiest thing in the world to do....but worth it in the end.

Anyway, I am happy to have found my own little "Dear Diary," again, so that I can record a few random thoughts, lose the password, forget about the existence of the blog for a while, find it again, and smile at the thoughts that pass through my head.
