I went out to lunch with my oldest friend in the world the the day. We have been friends for 28 years. Our lives couldn't be more opposite. She got married and has 3 kids. I have never been married and do not have any kids. Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I had settled down and got married. I probably would have gotten divorced like so many other people do when they grow up and realize that the person they married has not changed and grown in the same direction that they have. I am not trying to be negative about marriage, because I believe it is a beautiful thing. I am just glad that I didn't have to go through the pain of divorce with kids and such.
It took me longer than I really want to admit, but I finally have figured out my role in this life. I now know what makes me happy and I will be damned if I don't do it every day. Why not choose to be happy if it is an option?
