We just need to keep our eyes open. Whe...Exactly! We just need to keep our eyes open. When I "gave up" my dream of becoming a teacher in my early college years, I never thought I would wind up back at it half a lifetime later. There was a reason I had a different path to be on. I just don't know that that was and probably never will. That's the interesting part of life. We do have to keep our eyes open for those wonderful moments. Sometimes we don't realize how wonderful they were until they've past us by and we're looking back in memories.Karen Greenberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12272747678480176988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6768865386007166850.post-16010824796532099662013-06-13T22:08:00.576-05:002013-06-13T22:08:00.576-05:00I'm 31, and have been a teacher since I was 21...I'm 31, and have been a teacher since I was 21. But I hear what you are saying. I think many of the things that happen in our lives happen because it's time, no matter if we are ready or not. But if we are lucky, we get a chance to realize the wonderful moments as they happen.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04415103442338267124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6768865386007166850.post-30041992372337333052013-06-13T22:06:04.987-05:002013-06-13T22:06:04.987-05:00It always feels better when someone agrees with yo...It always feels better when someone agrees with you!

I know it took me some time to grow and mature before I could really pin down serious goals. I went back to college at age 33 and became a teacher at age 36. I know I appreciate my degree a whole lot more now than I would have if I had taken the traditional route. Our experiences DEFINITELY change our goals. In some ways I like to just see where life will take me.Karen Greenberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12272747678480176988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6768865386007166850.post-4385468087425080852013-06-13T09:32:02.188-05:002013-06-13T09:32:02.188-05:00I totally agree with you!

If your goals don't change with you as your life changes it'll leave you with a petty empty feeling of an unrealized goal that's not so important anymore.<br /><br />You DO have a pretty fabulous world now!Nanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06376476093305279684noreply@blogger.com
