In fact it was making lists like this (I want to work for myself, I want to move out of London) that got me here.<br /><br />Maybe you're not old enough to understand this yet, but making explicit to yourself what really matters to you and makes you joyful helps ensure that you don't spend years and energy chasing things that don't.

What makes you, YOU...what makes you dream, makes you wistful, makes you create these lists...will not go away.<br /><br />I take off my make up every night. I floss every night. I shop at the Local Market and eat organic, locally grown, grass fed things. Until Sept, I lived at the beach. I have an entire hallway devoted to a picture wall. I fell in love with the man of my dreams at a bar at 1am. And that man brings home flowers on a Monday, just because. <br /><br />And with all of this, I still dream of things...of what I want to be, what I want to do, where I want to go. So do you. This dreaming is a beautiful part of you. It makes you an exceptional writer. So as much as you think flossing will make you "that kind of woman" please remember that you will always be YOU. So be HER.Ashleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12415512134390374929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155538679069971441.post-60863365145461339042012-01-18T21:15:10.015-05:002012-01-18T21:15:10.015-05:00The kind of woman you want to be?
