I'm not very good at doing crow and I was a bit nervous about there being rocks and crashing waves right below me but I love this photo!

So, I've taken up yoga this year.  Specifically, Buti Yoga.  You should look it up if you don't already know about this fun and amazing form of yoga.

I will be starting a new blog in the near future but it won't be through Tumblr.

The beginning of this week started off different.  It wasn't necessarily bad or wrong, for me, but as the week progressed, things just got rough - both through events as well as my mental state.  I won't go into detail about any of it because it's a bunch of babbling that doesn't really matter to anyone, much like this exact sentence.  

Today, I've decided that I'm having a slight midlife crisis.  Maybe not exactly that but every year, usually when my birthday creeps up, I start to review my life and what I have or have not done up to that point and I go through a normal stage of depression.  In exactly a month from today, I will be turning 28.  I start to feel like a piece of shit when I realize my current income is much less than it was over five years ago.  I'm still living from house to house, paying rent with no sign of me being a future homeowner in sight.  My savings account hasn't increased in almost a year and the amount that is in there is so tiny that it is borderline pointless.

I talked to my two closest girl friends today to try to get to the bottom of my feelings.  I'm at this age and I haven't accomplished anything.  Yes, I've had loads of amazing experiences but they aren't goals that I've set out to try to achieve. 

"What do you want to do?" is the question presented to me.

It's a basic question that has been asked many times in my life but it's never hurt this much to answer it before.  The part that makes it sting is that I truly have no answer.

Before writing this post, I signed onto Facebook.  My frustration with myself was still very fresh.  Of all places to find my answer, Facebook was the last place I thought I'd find it.

"... the title "mommy" is and will always be, my greatest accomplishment."

I feel so much better with my state of life right now, knowing that at some point, I will be a mother and all of my "suffering" of feeling like I haven't accomplished anything will not matter once I become exactly that.

Holy mother of fucks.  This is basically all I've ever needed.
