It seems to be part of the aging/maturing process as we raise our families and give give give to them, quietly forgetting our own needs, that we finally awaken and realize that there is a huge part of us that is missing.

I hit my "light bulb" stage around 41-42 years. I made some huge sweeping changes in my life. I had become ill and was looking at a very scary dx for almost a year. I then got a chance to travel to the UK with a friend for a holiday. When I came back from that trip is when the light bulb came on and I realized there was more to life than me giving giving giving to everyone else but me.

It's a wonderful trip to go on...finding what makes you tick and what new and exciting things you want to work towards. The possibilities are endless. I don't regret the changes I made for a minute. I have learned more in the past 10 years than I had up until that point and I plan on learning more and more about myself and the world.

Good luck with your new visions....your new goals and taking care of YOU!!!

Hugsssss
