Bucket List

I've been in "survival mode"for years and for a long time did not have aspirations other than to make it through raising my children....(that sounds so bad!)  It hasn't been easy parenting...then we were in debt up to our eyeballs...then I had cancer....and now my husband is in school.  It has been a perpetual state of "someday--". So years ago I scrapped the idea of a bucket list and traded it for having daily moments of joy and beauty.  So now I watch for sunny skies, flowers that bloom just so, people who touch me and help me feel loved and grateful...and today I enjoyed many moments.
