The blog dare of the day : Carpe Diem the moment when I seized the day. For some this must be easy, but not so much for me. Now, don’t get worried thinking that I’m some shriverled up flower that has never had her moment. On the contray, I’ve had many moments. Many, many times in my life where I would consider that I had seized the day. This makes me feel good, very good. It makes me feel good that I have had so many times that I have stepped outside of my comfort box and took control that I can’t just pick one. I just can’t pick one moment. Not one.
I’m glowing right now. Just when I thought I was boring, I realize that I’m not. I have more than one moment of closing my eyes and leaping into the unknown. I have taken risks, some incredibly stupid and some well calculated. I have said things maybe I shouldn’t have said. It’s worked at times and of course backfired at times. Honestly, I have always dreamed of being that person. The person that takes what they have and just goes with sheer abandon. Thinking about it now I have been at that person at times and it fills me with joy.
It was in one of those moments that I told this guy that I loved him and I made a mistake letting him go. Everyone told me to forget it, that he was happy and to let him go. I decided to tell him and I’ve been telling him every day since then. We’ve been married for 11 years now. Carpe Diem!
