And even then it takes huge amounts of courage and stupidity to take chances. <BR/><BR/>If the project, job, or endevor fails, its oh so much fun to beat ourselves around the head and shoulders. <BR/><BR/>That should be considered a career in itself! I'm really good at it.

She knew I was destined for that path before I did and was waiting for me to figure it out.Annettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02755947919433555176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33226151.post-1158671896954600842006-09-19T09:18:00.000-04:002006-09-19T09:18:00.000-04:00Judith,You really are our "Glam Gal!"

What we think we want is not really what we want. And then we don't end up getting it.<BR/><BR/>When I was younger, I would go into a, "What's wrong with me?" loop at that point.
