Yesterday, in my emotional state, I wrote down what I wanted to acheive before I died. I figured it didn't matter if I was going to die in a few years or several decades, the focus that this medical scare has provided me helps me to get down to what I really want out of life.
So, I wrote down some goals. Some even surprised my wonderful husband (but not many). Here they are in no particular order.
- Finish two craft projects I'm working on - one for my friend's baby and one for my sister's baby.
- Have a book published. Although I decided later that even continuing to have articles published would probably suit me, so I guess continuing to work on my writing and be able to call myself a published writer.
- Be a loving, devoted wife to my wonderful husband.
- Be a great mother to my four (hopefully more!) children.
- Be a good home-maker.
- Teach all my children about God and have them following Him.
- LOVE!!!
- Teach my kids what they need to know about life.
- Learn to speak Spanish fluently.
- Give home-made or hand-made, meaningful gifts, not commercial crap.
- Eat YUMMY nutritious food.
- Laugh lots!
- Have fun.
- Be silly.
- Cuddle and kiss and tickle and touch my husband our blessings.
- Introduce my children to great books and music.
- Dance and sing and not care what anyone else thinks about it.
- Take a zillion photos of our blessings. And my husband and extended family.
- Spend heaps of time with my husband and children.
- Stop being cranky with my family and telling them to go away.
- Go on a missions trip to South America.
- Be a Proverbs 31 woman.
- Live and die without regrets.
