As you all know by now, I am not a "glass half full" person. I don't necessarily think of myself as a fatalist ... I think of myself as more of a realist. So, a while back, I was on The Huffington Post and read an article by a gal who had quit her day job and was now living her dream. Her dream consisted of: (1) having more time to herself; (2) becoming financially independent; (3) having homes in other parts of the world; and (4) being able to travel. She has now decided to help the rest of us achieve the same.
Her article goes on to have the reader answer a long list of questions -- FAST -- before you have time to think about it, then you add up your scores and VOILA! Your life's purpose REVEALED.
I don't need to take a test to find my life's purpose.

Honey, EVERYONE on earth wants to have more time to themselves, become financially independent, have homes in other parts of the world and be able to travel. EVERYONE. And you telling me that if I do what you tell me to, I too, can have the life of my dreams? Someone needs to be bitch slapped. Twice.
People like you make other people feel like crap. People do not like to feel like crap. You need to stop writing these "you can have it all" bullshit articles. You CAN'T have it all. Period. Quit getting peoples hopes up and start writing more useful articles. Thank you.

ReplyDeleteShe must have been writing for the 'Obvious' section of HuffPo.
ReplyDeleteI'm a "glass is dirty and now I have to was it" person.
ReplyDeleteI still don't know what my life's calling is either but I know I don't need life lessons from someone who "has it all." I'll take life lessons from "people who are works in progress" like myself.
I think I used to many of "these" in this comment. :)
WASH...sorry, I'm scarfing down chicken wings and my damn fingers are greasy!
ReplyDeleteOne can never have it all. It’s all just an illusion for other people to believe in.
ReplyDeleteHAPPY NEW YEARS DEBBIE! And though I am a half-full person, I do realize that the whole idea is the IN-PROCESS stage. That I believe, is when we "...have it all." Whatever comes of how we behave during the process is just the prize.
ReplyDeleteHAPPY 2013 and the trick for us all is to never stop searching. LOVE! Anita
I love you. Really.
