A special place where I can go and find peace and refuge is at the park by my house. I can sit on a rock and look at nature and just think about my future and ideas about how to manage my life and make decisions.

Why am I living in this world? All these questions and more yet I have no response to. I can see myself having a job that pays well and living with my husband and our 2 kids. I want to be a role model for someone, someone who would look up to me…more as I want to change somebody's life. Am I living my life simply? No. Am I living it deeply? Somewhat yes. I don'
