I have been actualizing my dream for a few years.
I am doing the things I have always wanted to do.
I am learning the things I have always wanted to learn.
Even though I earned a living for many years and ran a household raising several children, this is the first time I am supporting myself.
This is the first time I am respecting and supporting my own needs and desires.
I am feeling a sense of self-respect which goes much deeper than any other kind of achievement or accomplishment.
Just because I got things done does not mean I led a life which allowed me to respect who I am.
Sure, I accomplished what I needed to.
But this is completely different.
I feel so privileged to have persistently desired a goal of my own and done whatever it took to achieve it.
I feel as though I am living a new life.
I am energized and renewed.
What a marvelous new way to live.
