It’s 4th of July, y’ll! For most people in the world, it’s just another day in the month. But for Americans, it’s a big day. America’s birthday. When I first came to America, I couldn’t care less for July 4th. I just enjoyed not having to go to school. Now that I’m older, I have a genuine appreciation for America and all things American – July 4th included. Apart from getting my nails done and having a “cook in” with Igwe, I have no other plans. Now, on to my ramblings.
Do you ever feel like you’re not moving fast enough? Like your life isn’t progressing as fast as you want? I have my days of feeling this way, and yesterday was one of them. I literally cried yesterday, and it happened all of a sudden. Like one moment I was fine, and the next moment I wasn’t. It’s not that things aren’t going well with me, it’s that my dreams are so huge, and the longer they take to become reality, the bigger they become. And I’m going through several emotions at once: overwhelmed, scared shitless, excited, eager, anxious.
What does success mean to you? I’ve been thinking about it lately. I’ve been asking myself what success means to me, and I still don’t know the answer. I’ll blog about this when I know the answer. I don’t know at what point I will consider myself “successful”
I have read all the comments on my post about thinking about perming and cutting my hair. Thank you! All the comments have made me even more interested in perming and cutting my hair. But it’s not yet time to do it. You know timing is everything. I usually take a minute to start things.
I’m done rambling. Have a happy and safe 4th of July.
I have those days often too…
Really sad, isn’t it?
