In fact Einstein once wrote, "How many people are trapped in everyday habits: part numb, part frightened, part indifferent? To have a better life we must keep choosing how we're living." Right back at you mister.
So how exactly am I choosing to live? It's critical to not shorten this ask to how am I living. We all have a choice in how we are living. I am choosing to work full time in order to maintain our family. I am choosing to vocalize my most intimate needs to my husband, without anger, frustration or insensitivity. I am not expecting immediate change but I am confident that we are beginning to make the change we wish to see in our family.
I realize that for too many years I have put work over family, not consciously but I failed to set boundaries. Not because I couldn't but because I let myself believe and be influenced by others that I could not. I want to choose working in an environment I am passionate about and full present to. I want to choose passion over money. I want to choose the pursuit of happiness one day at a time.
