My life in 149 words...
But...
by fairydancer
...In my life I have not always achieved what I have wanted to, but then, I am human, not divine, (and a perfectionist at that,) so how could I?
Neither have I seen all I wanted to, but then, I am a dreamer, so, how could there be enough time?
Nor have I said all that I should have done... probably because I was too busy saying what I shouldn't!
And, I have wasted a lot of time thinking I can't, or mustn't (while still doing what I shouldn't!)
So, at times, I have been inactive, blind, deaf, ignorant, self-defeating and self-denigrating.
Yet, I have also done many good deeds, shown great insight and thought inspirational thoughts...
So, it turns out, I am quite normal.
A mixture of good and bad...
It's all just a matter of proportion.
Now, I have chosen to be good, but...
