Just thinking...

You ever sit on day and think about your life? Think about where your life is, how close to what you expected it would be, look at your goals and maybe reevaluate?
Well, I do that a lot, and normally I think "Hmm, not bad. It could definitely be worse."
Last night, when I was waiting for Mikey-boy to fall asleep I thought about my life goals and you know what I realized?
My life is pretty much exactly where I wanted it to be. I have always had a list of goals and these are the top ones- the ones that I am not really willing to change.
(these are in no particular order)
- graduate high school- preferably early
- get into BYU
- get married in the temple
- have kids
- go to Europe and see a Shakepearean play in the Globe Theatre (don't worry, I know its not the original, blah blah blah- just let me dream okay?)
- go to a Disney park
- be a photographer
- graduate college

Now- check this out. The bold are the ones that I have reached...
- graduate high school- preferably early
- get into BYU
- get married in the temple
- have kids
- go to Europe and see a Shakespearen play in the Globe Theatre
- go to a Disney park
- be a photographer (this one is partially bolded because I am actively working on this goal but I haven't reached it yet- so if you know anyone that wants some free pictures done to give me experience that'd be cool...)
- graduate college

So of the goals that I haven't reached Europe seems pretty far fetched- and you know, having kids makes that dream a little harder to reach but I guess its all in the priorities, sacrifice one goal for something greater, and you know what, I don't regret it- so I guess maybe I am willing to change that one... And graduating from college- I only have 2 semesters left!

So now I ask you, I am completely happy with my life and soon my list will be mostly complete- what do I do then?

  1. You are pretty fantastic! I feel like my list is a work in progress and it'll take me a while but I am happy to say you've inspired me to keep working on it!
