To linger...

December...how did we get here already? It seems just like yesterday that I was wondering the same about December 2009. This year has passed so quickly for me. I wish time would go slower. Although there are dreams that I am chasing-buying our first home, having a baby-I want to be able to savor the journey, no matter how smooth or hard and rocky the road is.

How do we do this? I suppose the first thing to do might be to eliminate wasteful time, wasteful 'things'. Simplify life. What is it that allows you to linger in the moment?

    Wow - this...this...I am trying to savour this rocky journey and although there are so many good things on the way, I find myself wanting to know when and where I will get to the point where I may be pregnant, or have a baby. It is a tough thing.....your outlook seriously impresses me!
