To my darling Ambition,
Oh where have you gone my dear? It
seems ages since we were together.
I remember a time when we use to have a
goal; and we would stubbornly do everything, fight anyone, and even
ignore certain pleasures just to reach that goal.
These days, we feel a great sense of
accomplishment if we managed to vacuum, and to clean the bathroom.
It is not you my dear Ambition. I
think it is me and my lack of goals. Really, my life these days
seems to revolve around getting the laundry out of the dryer and
folded (which I really should be doing right now) and deciding what
we should eat for dinner.
There are days when this is enough.
However, there are days when I miss wanting and reaching for more.
Oh Ambition, maybe it is not you who
have left me, but me who has abandoned you.
Though there is still this one
important goal that we are still striving for together – to love
and raise our most precious little darling. Maybe this is enough.
Love,
Me
PS yes... I am going to finish the
laundry after this....
