Did you ever feel you are leading a life you did not plan?
You got on a plane headed for a particular DESTINATION. But it landed you in another DESTINY!
That's what life did to you,.
It does it to many of us.
My best childhood friend Susie planned on becoming a nun when she got bigger. I planned on becoming an actress.
At 19, Susie married a boy she met at Hillel Jewish youth group.
I went on to dream of becoming a free-spirited female who would never marry or have children. I would dedicate myself to literature and art.
After a brief spree in Manhattan doing just that, I met a man one summer in the Vermont woods. That autumn, we began building our homestead in Massachusetts.
Within a few years, I was a monogamous wife living in the West Bank of Israel with five wonderful children we created.
My planned life of wild abandonment to art and literature in New York laughs at me now. And I laugh at it.
White-haired and lined, I have 16 grandchildren, a baby boy born last month and the 17th due in September.
And yes life goes so swiftly. Right after the birth of my 16th grandchild my Granddaughter gave birth to her second child. (See us in the banner of this blog) I am twice a great-grandmother.
So what are YOU supposed to do when YOUR life doesn’t go as planned?
Honestly, becoming thankful for all that has come unasked for brings inner peace. But sowing gratitude and peace in your mind and soul is a long process.
For me, being a contented great-grandmother comes after much confusion and regrets about abandoning my personal dreams tied to America.
It comes after years of developing spiritual awareness about my “mistaken destination” with ten new wrinkles for each year.
It comes after working with gifted teachers and therapists and becoming a mentor myself.
WHAT THIS MEANS FOR YOU
