Tales from my journey with Kailyn
I wanted to share with you all a dream I had. It’s one of my favorite dreams (if that’s a thing). But I need to give you a little background first. This won’t be a long post, but it’s one I wanted to share on a day that has meaning to me, as a constant …
This is a blog I wrote over several weeks. That hasn’t been my pattern in the past. Getting left behind is a difficult thing. It’s a terrible feeling and something I think about all the time. Because of the nature of writing about a “current” and very STRONG feeling, this one took me a few weeks to write, read, re-write, read, edit, read, and write again.
Believe it or not, this will be my 24th blog post since I started. Some I think have been good, and some have been average. But they’ve all been honest and real, that’s for sure. I’ve also now had 6,700 reads on my blog, so I’m honored to have my thoughts read by so many in such a short time.
I hope you enjoy this one. It’s just about as real as it gets. Comment, share and let me know that you stopped by!
Entrepreneurship. Marriage. Parenting. Guilt. We’ve all felt it, but how we deal with it is the mark of who we are. I thought I’d share my experiences and thoughts on these three topics. There are many more I could explore, but these are the three that dominate my life, and hopefully you can identify with at least one of them.
Since my separation, I’ve been chasing happiness and can’t seem to find it. There’s just something missing and I can’t put my finger on it. This blog will probably leave you with more questions than answers, but I thought I’d pick apart my present journey to find happiness.
Birthday’s are just another day in the year. But for me, I’ve always enjoyed the day because it’s a significant reminder of another year passed, and a TON of memories created.
“What if?” Is one of the phrases I fear the most and I love the most. I don’t want to live my life wondering “what if?”, but I do want to dream “what if”. I can live with “what is”, “what can be”, and “what could be”, but not a past “what if?”
Not enough time. Too much time. Can I just make time stop? My life has been full of trying to manage time, but I can’t no matter how much I want to. Here’s a few stories about life, Kailyn and friendships that pertain to “managing time”. I enjoyed writing this one, I hope you enjoy reading!!!
Ever asked yourself, “Why is life so hard?” Or, “If life were easy, then . . .” I think you’d be in good company if you’ve asked yourself one of those two questions. Unfortunately life is hard. Sometimes it fees like it’s harder on you than on others, and while that’s not necessarily incorrect, a lot of times it just takes a little perspective to feel better. Here’s my thoughts on “If Life Were Easy”.
As I get ready for bed, I’m so excited to see my little girl tomorrow, that I can hardly get to sleep (hence why I’m up this late). At the same time, I can’t stop thinking about how sad my ex must be at the same time. I’m not sure why that though is even entering my mind, but I can’t help but feel empathy for how she must be feeling as she tucks Kailyn into bed tonight.
As a parent, I’m sure you’ve gone to bed feeling like the “Worst Parent Ever”. You’re not alone and I wanted to write about feeling this way.
