Who ever knew that life could be so dictated by what others think of us, and what we think of ourselves? Well, fact is, for most of us it is. So many "live" on the precipice of life, afraid to offend the people who seem to spoon feed us our worth. Kind of like "The Little Train that Could"..."I think I can! I think I can!"

Indeed, we can! It's high time we stopped asking for permission to live our lives. So, some people won't agree with all your choices. So, some of those people may be your family, or friends near and dear to you. You have one life, one shot. Go for it. There truly are no mistakes, just ways that may be better. I would rather enjoy my life even for one day, than life a lifetime full of reasons why I tried to please someone else, by doing what they thought I should. Follow your heart, it won't lead you wrong.
