…well, today, apparently. Here I was, driving & day-dreaming, when I came bumper-to-bumper with the swift kick in the ass I needed to stop imagining the life I want and start living it. So begins my someday file.
I turn 29 this September & will have lost my dad to leukemia 15 years ago this October, so I decided that before I turn 30 and in honor of how vivaciously, lovingly, and authentically my dad would be living if he were still here, I need to give my 29th year my all, and I need to start getting ready for it now. So someday really is today, and I’m embracing it one day at a time from here on out.
This “someday file” is a space for me to keep track of ideas, wishes, dreams, goals, epic failures, things that make me wonder, moments that make me learn, & all the things that make me who I am or could be. I’ll update as I make progress on my 30-before-30 list, add to my ashtray collection, happen upon pieces of (un)intentional poetry, and/or discover other hobbies, interests, curiosities, projects, etc. Feel free to follow along, share your story, laugh with/at me, give me advice, and help make this next year of my life the best I’ve lived yet!
