There's a need inside me that aspires to be something amazing. Someone who has truly inspired others, made a difference, made a name for myself. When I'm gone from this world (in hopefully many, many MANY years from now), I want to know that people can look fondly upon my life and smile with appreciation for the aspirations I accomplished.
This need is constantly there.
I can't pinpoint what needs to be done to get there. Whether it's one thing, or whether it's a series of life events that I will work my way through in my life, it's not apparent yet.
I realize that aspirations are dreams, and you are the only one who can make your dreams into reality (unless you win the lottery, then hello!) but I continue to search for what my aspirations truly are.
Until then...I lead the Life of Leslie, stillettos and all.
The life of a late-20-something woman, aspiring to be something amazing.

I know that feeling. I have that feeling.
Now that I have the kids, the only thing I want said at my funeral is that I was a good mom - because really, no one will care that I was a good employee you know?
But it's not just motherhood. I am exploring new ways to grow and communicate, opportunities that have risen since becoming a mom, and all of it is excited.
You'll get there. It may not be one thing, but a series of things that you will own and love.
