All our lives we seem to be waiting for something. Many times we find ourselves saying that we’ll buy something someday or that we’ll do something someday or even someday we won’t have to do something else. At times we actually wonder if someday will every come.
Well, this is someday. It’s here and it’s not working out like a lot of us had planned. From health issues to family problems to finance problems and last but certainly not least, to RV problems …. this is it, Folks! Even though we know many enjoying their someday we also know quite a few retired folks who thought someday was finally here only to find out it’s still in the future. We have good friends with very serious illnesses, friends with devastating financial surprises and even others with brand new rigs that continue to need repairs. There have been fires and accidents and even premature deaths. What’s with this? Is this IT?
The elusive someday was supposed to be the time when working for survival was behind and everything dreamed about was finally going to come true. It was supposed to be the time when people were carefree without worries or bills or obligations. It was being free to do what one wanted and when one wanted to do it.
For many the reality of someday finally being here was the day they retired, moved into their RV and hoped to live happily ever after. That’s what we want and we’re hoping all the problems go away and that someday is as great for everyone as it was hoped to be.
Yep, our someday is finally here.
We are living our someday every day, every moment, and as happily ever after as we possibly can. Even during the rough times, the sad times and the unsure times.
ReplyDeleteThis ain't no dress rehearsal...it is it!
Good luck with your recent tough issues, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade! Always remember, you have plenty of friends to help drink it with too.
ReplyDeleteLife is life and we have to make the best of it. My someday is now and I love it. But I'm also willing to drink the lemonade when it's served. This was a great post.
ReplyDeleteEven with all the new "situations" our current "someday" is better than our previous "we'll get through this" things were. It helps to keep it all in perspective.
ReplyDeleteVery good post. But even the most terrible day on the road is better than a day at work. I always say "We will never have all our ducks in a row but most of them is great". We are living our dream and loving it.
ReplyDeleteWell said! Thank you for the reminder. {{hugs}}
ReplyDeleteAs a Christian, you know that there is a reason for this someday. He will guide you all and keep you close to Him! Love and prayers to you and the family.
