Alter ego-
Have you every wanted to be someone else, not just look like them, but be them, more than likely this person is “made up.” The person you desire to be is more perfect then anyone you really know. I desire to be a great wife, with a lot of admiration and kudos from her husband. The kind of woman who anticipated the needs of her spouse, and the spouse likes that. Those of you reading this and know my husband are laughing, he is a good man, but not complimentary, or desiring to have his needs met at every whim.
I desire to be the Mom whose kids are soooooooooooooo happy she is there, yet they are independent, and clear headed, morally upstanding individuals, who can say, “ I learned this from my Mom” !!! I desire to be the friend that is thoughtful, fun, and entertaining. Someday I desire my life’s work to be that of someone who made a difference and gave back to society. I pray for these things, today and everyday, God grant me wisdom, grace, and the power to do good. In the meantime, I will use these alter egos, sketches of who I want to be or might be someday. One is done by my friend PJ Cardona from pjgreetings.com, the other is a collage I made from 50’s TIME magazines.
God is good, life is hard, I am blessed,
Xo,
Carrie

you for sure have the friend part accomplished, and the life's work part too, from my perspective. The rest - well I think *real* people have days where those things are true & days where they are tougher...and that's what makes it all interesting! ;-)
