Life is better on the water
While it might seem simplistic, it is exactly what I needed and wanted...a simpler life with less things; less money; less stress. Having left corporate America, giving up the BMW and deciding to have less it's ironic that I actually feel like I have more; I'm living a much fuller life, which I appreciate to no end.
While I don't regret having done the corporate grind, it does make me appreciate even more the lack thereof at present day. Being able to enjoy time with my husband, my pets and not worry about the next high-powered presentation, the plane trips to various conferences, hiring/firing employees and ridiculous traffic and commutes and zero work-life balance...well, it's simply priceless.
I wake each morning in the arms of my best friend, my husband...the cat begging for treats and relaxing walks with our new dog along the beach on this beautiful lake. Coffee on the deck overlooking the lake and watching the boats and heading to work with an excellent team for a great company and again...it's priceless.
So I close with this, we live once (yes I know it's the cliche) but it's so true...we must enjoy our lives to the best of our ability...we must live in the moment and be grateful for what we have yet at the same time have the will power and strength to fight for what we need; what we believe in.
Live life. Period.
