Romanticizing Life at (almost) 40

I dont want to romanticize my life, but here I am working late.

Kids safely tucked in bed early around 9pm. I also doze off for awhile then woke up around pass 12 midnight.

Time check 2:03 AM of March 8 2025, a beautiful Saturday.

Listening to the music while hearing the sound of the airplane in a quiet night.

Seemingly inviting and teasing , March 25 is almost near. Got to pack our bags once again and let loose in a lovely vacay with kids and mom. 

While everything begins to slow down, my spotify plays in the background giving oldies but goodies vibes I realized this is my life. Like in the movies, alone in a quiet evening with cold coffee, working late Infront of dimly lit laptop, watching reels in my phone from time to time, trying to order shit online, watching kids when they suddenly make sounds while asleep and just sitting alone with my big mind juggling thoughts non stop.

The music playing entitled 'blue moon' with the lines;

Blue moon, now I'm no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own

Well definitely I have a dream of my own, I am no longer alone and without a love of my own. HA!

Well technically I have my kids to love eternally, and really not alone because I have 'me' again finally and so many dreams and memories to fill in for me and my babies.

Time ticking, just a few days from now i'll be turning 40. I wish I really learned from the past, become much happier, smarter, prettier (for my kids), healthier with full of cash.

MORE TRAVEL PLEASE. MORE LOVE. MORE CASH. AND HEALTHIER THAN EVER <3

looking back at my 30's it was such an amazing ride, the most meaningful thus far, having been transformed into a mother of two beautiful and wonderful kids and navigating thru life as a single mom.

I want to thank all the people, who played and still plays a part in my life(good or bad). Without you I wouldn't be this brave, strong, mindful, more understanding, giving and loving. I guess, this is life after all - to experience the tastes of bittersweet wine, to be a little bit bold, wild and carefree.
