Things I've Lost...

• That desire to always be a big city girl
• The strong ties to my family and friends back home since I moved away
• Free time to just sit and read a good book
• My patience...time and time again
• The passion for my job that I started out with

Things I've Found...

• That the older I get, the better I prioritize the things in my life and what really matters
• The most amazing man I have ever met and was lucky enought to marry
• That I desperately want to be a home owner when I thought I would want to just rent
• A nice reliable car that fits my family's needs
• A wonderfully, energetic and vibrant kitty that brings lots of joy to my household
• That I don't have all the answers, and that for once, I am okay with that
• That life isn't fair and that you have to take what you get and make the best of what you got
• That a person shows their true character in how they deal with their hardships
• That love and marriage really did complete my life and fill me with a sense of peace
• That I am incredibly resilient and always have a plan for everything
• A job that pays extremely well but that is so stressful that at time I want to cry
• That these moments right now are the only ones we have for sure and we should make them count
• That my life is just a little bit ordinary
• That I am an old soul
