All the time. i miss my little girls (4 and 2). I have been in the Corps since they have been born, and dont get to see them as much as i want to, or should. But they know i miss em, and im out savin the world like a superhero! I guess i should be there, i know i need to be there, and i definately want to be there, but duty calls.

Well, sure, sweetcakes! We talked about this before. I was supposed to be a great and wealthy screen-writer in Hollywood. The fates stepped in and thwarted my plans. I pissed Zeus off...or something. Or, start a finishing school for upwardly mobile, blonde, young ladies.

I have in the past, but then I remembered that as soon as I had expectations about what my life "should" be, I was getting further away from it. The more you kind of let go and accept what you do have, the more your life gives back to you. Worrying doesn't empty tomorrow of its problems but drains today of its positive, productive energy!

No...I am right where I should be..have everything I want to make me happy (wish Honolulu were closer to California but one can't possibly have everything all at once..besides, my son loves Honolulu)! :) I believe I am where I need to be, want to be and should be..I cannot conceive of any other life that would suit me as well. :) Happy Sunday! :)

I feel that way alot since the past few days . it seems that no one in my immediate family supports what I do, and what I am pursuing, and the drunk hoodlum man in my moms life is the number one concern all the time. Unemployed, not willing to work, and a waste of a 50 year old man . Shame it just frustrates me and makes me want to do away with this part of my life. I have my own business, and am studying to be a dr. So I deserve to be commended by my family but im not evenacknowledged.

I've felt like that recently (as you know, sweet)but I am wise enough to know that all this is meant to teach me something so I guess I'm right where I should and need to be - even if I don't particularly want to be! I also know that every moment is new and this gives me the renewed opportunity to live more fully in the 'now', thus loving everything that comes my way. lol x

I know exactly where I sould be and what I should do. But I'm not. Sometimes we give up our dreams for the sake of something that is more valuable in a long run. Dreams change, but some people around us will always be there, and I just want to be close to them.

I usually find myself trying as hard as I can to be as far away as possible ... Yet I am never alone

Welcome to Wherever You Are Bon Jovi Maybe we're different, but we're still the same We all got the blood of Eden, running through our veins I know sometimes it's hard for you to see You come between just who you are and who you wanna be If you feel alone, and lost and need a friend Remember every new beginning, is some beginning's end [Chorus] Welcome to wherever you are This is your life, you made it this far Welcome, you gotta believe That right here right now, you're exactly where you're supposed to be Welcome, to wherever you are When everybody's in, and you're left out And you feel your drowning, in a shadow of a doubt Everyones a miracle in their own way Just listen to yourself, not what other people say When it seems you're lost, alone and feeling down Remember everybody's different Just take a look around [Chorus] Be who you want to, be who you are Everyones a hero, everyones a star When you wanna give up, and your hearts about to break Remember that you're perfect, God makes no mistakes [Chorus] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNYQwZDcf1E click the link! its a good song!

I've been feeling that way off and on for years. I'm in that place right now, but it's supposed to be for a reason I guess. I can only do so much.
-
I sometimes do feel that way but I immediately squelch those feelings because i am where I am today because of conscious decisions I took in life. These were my decisions which brought me here so now I must make a success of being where I am.

I would like to be in my best friends house having a cup of tea right now and just having girl time ,so for now I'll have to send you hugs(((hugs))) ...:)
-
Yeah I did feel that way...I couldn't put my finger on it at the time. I realized it was because I felt alone in a state, far from friends and family, and didn't really know anyone, but acted like I was in my hometown. (and forgot I wasn't)
-
A LOT.... it's a long story.
-
yes.Because,I have helped others and not myself.

It sounds like you have been making some wrong choices along the way but it can all be turned round. Start thinking about what you really want from life and follow your heart.
-
Yes all the time, especially when I'm being too stubborn to admitt my own mistakes. We come from a society of wanting things over night so that mentality is so easily adapted to. Don't get me wrong I believe hole heartedly in hard work but somtimes I wonder if hard work is enough.

I felt like that my whole life growing up in Michigan, now after living in California for 23+ years I know this is where I needed to be. Sometimes it just takes a while to get there, but you know when you are there, it's the right place for you.
-
Right now I'm so far away from my dream and I feel the need to be there, so I'm trying.
