Puts it all in Perspective

I have just found out that my Cousin Bekah Nave is a business partner with INNOVE Events. How cool is that!

Here is a link to their grand opening INNOVE Events Grand Opening.

We aren't close cousins, I haven't seen her in years. But I am so excited for her!

So why does this put things in perspective?

Because.

I want to SO badly do the thing that I love the most, and I'm not. I envy my cousin for doing what she loves, giving it a go. She's young, educated, fashionable, and a willing participant in her dreams. So cool.

I had this deep DEEP conversation with my husband last night about this same thing. Did I mention he is super cool too? Yea, he totally rocks.

So anyway, one of the things I love most about him is that he listens and has an opinion. He sat there and listened to me for an hour and even when the tears started to stream and the mascara started to run, continued to listen to me. Didn't try to be a big man and fix it or solve it. Then he asked some serious hardcore questions about why I felt the way I did and he told me he supported me through it.

You see, my husband is ALSO living his dream. He wants to be a University Lecturer. He isn't a University Lecturer YET, but he is teaching University Courses and is planning on starting/earning his doctorate in Human Factors soon. So I have been jealous but happy. He loves what he does, he is passionate about what he does and can do.

So, in jist. Our conversation basically discovered that I am NOT HAPPY. So the first thing we are going to work on is, moving. Hate this house. Have tried and tried, but not willing to work it. Then little steps here and there. I'm excited. I have a future to look forward too. So Awesome.

Ciao.
