This is a Jamaica Center bound E train. The next stop is…?
Today is decision making day. All things that I want in my life are pointing towards
YES! Why am I so suspicious of
saying “yes” to something that has 5 arrows pointing to it? I’m suspicious of
things that are too good to be true.
The trick to life is (see how I’m 23 and apparently have it
all figured out? thanks mom) enjoying the JOURNEY. So, the cruise can’t be the answer to all my problems.
The day before Ivan and I got the news, Monday 7/16, we were
walking to the library and talking about life- how adult of us. I said that cruise couldn’t be the
end-all, conclusion to our sorrows because once we got there we’d find a whole
‘nother series of problems to blame our life state on and we’d tell our selves
once we got off the cruise our life
would be better. The night before
that we were with our friend who’s in a Broadway show right now who said just
that. Her life isn’t perfect because she’s on Broadway. *Remember this because my ultimate
goal/end all sorrows has been to be on Broadway for who knows how many years..
So on the walk to the library, Ivan and I made the decision to
just BE HAPPY with our lives. It
was no coincidence that I was at another/different audition trying to move
forward when I got the invitation e-mail.
No coincidence.
I am Mormon. I
believe in a God (Heavenly Father) who has a plan for me. I try hard to follow His plan because I
know His plan is probably better than one I could cook up myself. I know not all my friends are
religious, but for me, believing in Heavenly Father makes my life easier and I
am really happy. I am so lucky to
have my husband Ivan. I am lucky
to have the opportunities, experiences, mentors, friends and family that I have. I know it’s no coincidence.
So, where is the next stop?
Sitting on the E train after work hearing the lady tell me
what my next stop is, studying my calender on my phone, making plans with
friends- there are SO MANY other things telling me where my life will take me.
But ultimately, I decide.
You're life is full of excitement and opportunity and blessings, thanks for sharing it with me.
