My 34 Thoughts

It was my birthday a few days back and I now came up with my 34 thoughts. (Now you could have guessed my age. Lol.) This is not to prank you on April fools by the way. 1. Each day in deed is a blessing. 2. God is good and faithful. 3. I love my parents, siblings, nephews, and okay most relatives. 4 . I realize I now have a fewer but true friends. 5. Life is not fair. 6. I am loud but shy. Weird? 7. I have a lot of hangups that I should really be throwing away. 8. My work is stressful but I am kind of liking it to seek revenge to my old company. Not good at all? But that would just mean competition since we are in the same industry. 9. I work hard and seems like I cannot stomach working smart and taking credit at another's expense. 10. I fell out of love of the idea of being in love. 11. At times I get easily tensed. 12. I should improve on my patience and temper. 13. I was hurt. 14. Nothing is permanent and no one is perfect. 15. I could do more. 16. I wonder if you guys are really reading this. 17. I must travel. 18. I should improve my financial condition. 19. Writing is my passion but I don't get to do it much now. 20. I am not a fan of know-it-all's. 21. I want to make a change. 22. The world is round. 23. I do not get all that I want. Do others do? 24. I might have missed opportunities - career and love life. 25. Time is ticking. 26. I have regrets and frustrations. Who doesn't? 27. I am lucky. 28. Sometimes not. 29. What will happen to our country after tje election? 30. I pray for world peace. 31. I want to do something spontaneous. 32. Should I shift into a career in writing? 33. I win some and then lose some. 34. I am getting old. What are your thoughts before, on, or after your birthday?

Revenge in a way that I will do better in the new one, since it is a competitor. Guess I have to edit to include that.

Re # 16, yes, I read the whole list. re: #34, 34 is not old, trust me. re: #31 making this list was a pretty spontaneous thing to do. re: #10 I fell out of love with the idea of being in love after my breakup with S. 14 months later I met K and fell in love for real. We've been together for almost 29 years now and married for nearly 28. Happy Belated Birthday!

Thank you for the greeting and for reading. Maybe I would stumble into love. Maybe not. It will happen if it has to.
