As I get closer to what I call my scary age (30..it's looming - and yes, I know, 30 is the new 20), I am wanting to revert back to the glorious times of middle school. No care in the world other than to do my homework, get the straight A's, and get a chance to play. My only care was to make sure no braces fell out for fear that I would have to pay to have them replaced...I was bad, I didn't listen to the lecture of what foods not to eat.
If only I could go back to that moment in time, knowing what I know now about life. A time when I wasn't wishing to wear makeup and heels, where I could go to work wearing whatever I wanted. Not worrying about grown-up things like paying the mortgage or wondering how I'm going to make it through a 14-hour day. Not worrying about my mom and how she's dealing with having two ill people to take care of. Not worrying about a missing relationship in life or what people think of me.
Just not worrying...now that's something I still wish for...and something I desperately want to come true.
