"IF YOU WANT TO HURT SOMEONE, LIE TO THEM. IF YOU WANT TO TOTALLY SCREW THEM UP, TELL THEM THE TRUTH"

The Mundane

The mundane.  The useless. The everyday.

In perspective, I have decided that I do have another purpose to ME.  I am NOT just a mom and "wife".  I have something to say.

Making lists is one of my favorite things to do.  I make lists for what I need to do today, grocery lists, Christmas lists.  Time to make the "To Do" list of my life.

Literally.

Things that I want to do whethor I think them feasible or not.  Like visit cathedrals.  Going to Paris.  Learning how to play the drums.  Learning Spanish.  Reading Pride and Prejudice from beginning to end, (wow, what a big book!)and owning a 1973 Ford Mustang Fastback...or "Eleanor".

Most of all, learning how to write.  I love words.  Most of all I like the effect they have on people.  The snowball effect I call it.  I say ONE word and it can provoke anger, tears, happiness. I am going to practice paying more attention to what I say, when and to whom I say it.  My personal feelings tend to motivate my mouth to open without thought to what I'm saying.  It is part of my personality so I have no doubt it will be hard.  But, even if I can accomplish a little bit of it everyday, I will finally see how my words have affected my life to this point.  

Cheers :)
