17 weeks left until my birthday. Which means, I will be cutting it close to finishing my 50 before 50 list. I am not sure I will check off all the items on my list. As a matter of fact, I know I won't. That doesn't mean I'm a failure. Jeep Momma's 50 Before 50 List
For me it is all about growing, and reminding myself I don't need to be like everyone else. I am unique!!! It's okay that I have never tried Sushi or ever watched Gone with the Wind.
As the big Five-Oh approaches, my list has reminded me of what is important to me. My 50 before 50 list was a great reminder that it's not necessarily about what I have done, but have I enjoyed my life? -- am I living it to the fullest? Am I having fun?
For me living life to the fullest means doing things I enjoy, not wasting a moment doing the things that I don't enjoy just because others have done it or it's expected.
I don't think I will ever finish a novel I was suppose to read in high school. Trying to read the Grapes of Wrath was a chore for me. The Grapes of Wrath is an award winning book, but it just isn't for me. Reading a whole chapter about a turtle crossing the road is just not something I enjoy.
I believe, life isn't about the destination, but the journey. And I am going to enjoy my journey to it's fullest.
