If only we got to do all we wanted to do and all we wanted to do accomplished all we ‘had’ to do as well.

If only we got to do all we wanted to do and all we wanted to do accomplished all we ‘had’ to do as well.

That sure would be nice, wouldn’t it? Ah, the art of procrastination.
Or missing the boat on what it is we have passion for and incorporating it in to our daily lives….. sigh. 😉
Yup.
😉
But I always seem to look for more to do?
I like to weed and clean. There is a beginning a middle and end… Then you get to do it again
That lovely cycle……. if we didn’t have more to do what would we do? I enjoy the ‘wanting’ to do more. 🙂
That would be awesome! Just like your brain for thinking this up! 😀
🙂 My brain thinks up many things…..some not so helpful, but interesting. 😉
I love the way your brain works on your blog Colleen! You have a brilliant and creative mind. 🙂
Why thank you very much Priceless! That means a great deal to me. 🙂
You’re welcome and it’s true.
Well, I know I would have a job as a writer for sure… or a rock star! yes, if only!
YES! The things we want to do and enjoy…..making our way in life. ON that passion. 🙂
If only…
Oh that would just solve all my problems and I would get paid for doing what I loved.
Sigh….I smile at the thought of it. I suppose the upside is, if we didn’t manage to get ourselves in a position of doing this productively for a living we should make sure we are productively feeding our needs to produce creatively else where. 🙂
well said
Thank you April!
If only… 😀 ❤
❤
If only. 😀

Not sure any of my ‘want to do’ ever come close to achieving my ‘have to do’, but what a lovely thought.
I know…..if only. To do the things we enjoy doing and know they were the things that paid the bills, the things we ‘got’ to get up and go do every single day. Some people managed to do that…..
Once accomplished, then what would we do Colleen? ❤
Diana xo
Why….we would keep on creating! 🙂 ❤
Oh, Colleen, what a perfect world and existence it would be. I sure wish they could coincide and also, pay the bills.
Some people managed to do this right Robin. Managed to find out what they loved and spend their lives doing it. They learn it, work it, live it in so many different ways. Maybe it’s even more than one ‘thing’. 🙂 Seems kind of lovely. 🙂
I have enjoyed many things I have been involved with, but always would have liked my first husband who worked with computers, met in college, etc. and I would have been able to continue teaching back in the day. When I got back into teaching, I was blessed to have a second chance at a different age group. Working at the battered women’s shelter and the nursing home were good places to make a difference, but my heart has been with children, since I was a girl. So, this was meaningful in many ways, different levels. Each time, season and year has gone ‘as they should go,’ no complaints!
Now that would be the be all and end all, MBC.
MBM, it would definitely include coffee cache-ing with my community of blog heads in Syracuse. 🙂
🙂 Count me in MBC.
🙂 First seat reserved, before mine!!!! 🙂
I read this about three times just to soak in the meaning! So true…if only!
If only and amen! 🙂 I wrote it as is. Then let it sit for an entire day and reread it twenty times. It can’t be that simple a thought and make that much sense to ME and to someone else….. 🙂
If only….
Amen.
Indeed if only!
Wouldn’t we be such a productive and happy bunch? 🙂
We would!
Yeah, I know the feeling. 🙂
🙂 Sigh. Well, at least we know things we enjoy, even if the doing of them isn’t exactly getting done what MUST be done. 😉
It is a great goal to go for Colleen 😀
Just we remember that nothing is free and sacrifice will be needed too. Live out the dreams 😉
Indeed nothing is free. I don’t mind the working. But I’m not sure who ever decided ‘work’ must be unpleasant or soul sucking, or other terms used to describe work. I think ‘work’ can be very meaningful and passionate and even fun. Hard work does not mean ‘bad’. 🙂
I agree Colleen. What I did mean was that dreams are not always free to live out. There will always be things we will need to do to be able to live out our dreams 🙂
You are so right Irene. I am not sure I would want all of my dreams to come true either….I like the hope of dreams and the complete freedom of dreams. The thing about dreams is, they are perfect as is, and feel good. Once they are reality we don’t really know that what we dreamed will play out as well as what the dream was any way. 🙂
I wish !
I hear that Duncan!
