This has been my mantra today, I think safely I would say it has been 'one of those days'.
I realised sitting in the taxi, on yet another trip away from Princess A, singing her 'goodnight song' that even though I wasn't there to tuck her in, I could still make it special for her. The taxi driver to my surprise thought it was a lovely song (obviously he is as tone deaf as I am) and gave me 2 sticks of incense (not sure what I am meant to do with those).
I guess what I realised is that I can always complain about working too much, or not enough, of being busy or not busy, of having it easy or having it tough, life has been a whirlwind since February for way too many reasons to go into here, and I just realised today how blessed I am to have A and Princess A. I have a wonderful life (ok we always wish for more, or better or whatever) but its time to take stock, make the most of the dreams I have and go out there and just do it.
I was reminded on Friday of my own advice (funny!!), I had a friend come and do my hair, and while we were talking she referred to a mutual friend of mine and something I told her a long time ago "what other people think of you is none of your business". My mum used to say that to me all the time, and it was really interesting having my own advice come back at me. It made me realise that as people we are far better at giving advice than taking it.
Today's post is slowly deteriorating to some babble.. I feel like I want to tell the world so much today, about how we can all make a difference yada, yada, yada. Probably the best place to start is to say, that today I had a reality check about what is important and moving forward I am really going to make the most of the life I have and love every minute of it.
A and Princess A are in my corner, they are their as my support and there to bat for me. Now is my time to make the right decisions, shine and make them proud.
Princess A and A, I love you both
Good Night big world
