The sun shone today. And, for the first time in months, I felt the sense of hope that only sunshine and the promise of summer can bring. Despite the fact that I’m fed up with the way my life is headed or rather, with the way it’s not headed, I feel positive. I have felt stuck for so long now and I’m ready to feel free. Work’s fine. Alright, that’s not entirely true. Work sucks and leaves me feeling claustrophobic. I need to change and I’m fed up with saying, “Tomorrow.” I need to change now before I wake up and realise that my life has passed me by and I still haven’t achieved the things that I want to achieve. Things like travel. And love. Mostly love. I’m fed up with the being the single one in the group whilst all my friends are settling down, getting married and having babies. As fabulous as her wardrobe is, I don’t want to be Carrie Bradshaw and I certainly don’t want to be Bridget Jones. I want my underwear to be small and lacy, not big and elasticated. And so, starting right now, I am changing. I will say, “Yes,” and not, “No.” I will jump in with both feet and take the path less travelled. I will not put off until tomorrow what I can do today because life cannot wait any longer. I am living now. I am chasing the sunshine. My real life starts today.
