Buy It

Life is short, and I today I was reminded.

A girl I went to High School with is dead.  Once upon a time she was a friend; a sister.  Now she’s gone.  26 years old, beautiful, with all the promise in the world in her bright blue eyes, just gone.

It really makes me stop and think for a moment. 

Fulfillment.
Passion.
Love.

I dont have time to waste.  None of us do.

My meaningless little life has been all in vain so far.  I’m doing great things, and yet I still feel like it’s not enough.

Do you think that we can really have it all?

Many women I know resign to the understanding that no, we can’t.  There will always be one part of your life that is lacking.  Trade money and success for love; trade love for money and success; trade family life for career; trade career for family life.  One or the other; this or that; pick and choose.

I really do think you can have it all.  And I’ll never stop trying to attain it all.
