Sometimes i wish..but.

sometimes i wish my boyfriend and i didn't move to chicago last summer and instead stayed in nashville, tn.
but then we wouldn't have taken the opportunity to escape our comfort zone and be forced to create lives we have a better chance at being happy in.


sometimes i wish i went to community college my first two years to save money. 
but i wouldn't trade my freshmen year for anything, because it was the best year of my life. besides, that was the year i met my lovey


sometimes i wish i chose a career with a steadier climate, like something in healthcare or finance; instead of the entertainment industry.
but then i would not have had the amazing opportunities i've had so far, like working at film festivals, the Grammy and CMT awards; living in LA for a few months without upheaving my entire life; nor would i  have met the incredible people i know.

sometimes i wish i had a mother and father who actually cared about me and my siblings before we realized we no longer need them in our lives.
but sadly, they have set the example of exactly what i DON'T want for my future family. My husband and children will never feel unloved.

sometimes i wish i could be happy with a mediocre life--it sure is a hell of a lot easier.
but i know it's too late for that.

sometimes i wish i could stop getting in my own way and just allow myself to feel the freedom i have now and enjoy it.
but i know it's easier to wish for something than to actually do it.

sometimes it's time to stop wishing.
no buts.
