This blog is all about morality, ambition and sacrifice. I should go into details…but I won’t–it wouldn’t be moral of me now would it? All I can say is to be moral one must take the cut, all in the name of the good for all. And I’m no different than any other human. I want what I want and how. So, do I say one only lives once? Go for it girl? Or do I take the first cut and suffer the pain by saying NO! to myself. Morality cuts deep into the self–it hurts. But having made the moral choice a few times, I can say it was worth it to hurt so others won’t. Yes, It’s always about personal sacrifice. And I am facing the sacrifice of ambitions. To pursue one of my goals I must temporarily sacrifice others. That hurts too. I want it all, and I want it now! To get my MA and PhD I have to put fiction and painting temporarily on the shelf. I don’t want to, but I won’t succeed at my degrees if I don’t. If I were merely a student maybe I could do even 2 pursuits at once. But, I am a mother of three and that happily takes up 24 hours of my day. So, I can only handle doing one other career pursuit at a time. I say sacrifice to achieve one goal at a time, systematically. Let’s hope it works. Gotta go buy the girls new ballet slippers.
PS the pics are of my back yard–behind my house is forest and just a 2 minute walk through the forest ends up here…at this place I brag about so often.

I figured you’d abandoned ship already–where is the health square recipe? And for lands sake girl–it’s philosphy–I just realized that morality really hurts–it was an epiphany–thought the world would want to know!

Girl thats crazy talk – your blog is not just an epiphany that morality hurts…what the h*ck are you talking about.
And health squares? You’ve seriously lost me on this blog.
