I am a wanna be

I wanna be a great runner.  It took me four marathons to call myself a runner.

I wanna be a domestic goddess.  I want to throw dinner parties and have everything ready and clean when people come.  I want a perfectly organized home, that is contempory, put together and still cozy. 

I wanna be a great mom.  I want to have endless patience, and knowledge, and want to play all the time.  I want to make the right choices for my kids.

I wanna be super fit and strong. 

I wanna be the wife that makes my husband feel safe, sexy, and at home where ever I am. 

I wanna be compassionate and passionate all the time while still being me.

I wanna be a better friend, one who can talk when friends call, and make plans that I keep, and I want to know the right thing to say.

I wanna be a lot of things. 

I wanna be happy.

And for the most part I am.

I am a work in progress but I love my life. 

I am happy to be me, even if I am a wanna be.

What to you want to be?

Good Night,

elena

    I often make lists....what I want to be...who I am.....
    If we stop making lists then we stop trying to be our best. We should always try to be our best and always strive for that and lists work for me!
    I bet if they are on your list, then you are what you want to be!!!! This was a great post!

    Hey thanks for stopping by. I'm always envious of people who can run marathons as I really can't. Running 3.2km on treadmill wants my life alr.. Haha.

    I want to be everything you listed, but mostly, I want to stop wanting to be something else and just be bloody happy being me!!
    I'm a work in progress, but I hope I'll get there some day :-)
