balance

life. motherhood. work. dreams. breathing.
it's hard to balance it all and still get a good night's sleep!
i finally understand i am who i am.
partnership is something i want.
but it will happen naturally with the right person.
we women are raised to play nice.
to accommodate.
to take it personally if we aren't liked.
but then we wonder what's wrong with us later on.
i hope i am a good role model for my daughter.
i hope she lets things happen naturally.
and doesn't try to force it.
or be forced.
we women are so critical of ourselves.
if we only stepped back and looked.
we are strong and smart and beautiful.
we do so much.
we keep the world moving and growing and caring.
i wish i had learned that earlier.
or known it instinctually.
but i am ready now.
for whatever comes.
to walk the path that is in synch with my destiny.
