Daily Milestones Post #5

Today, I have decided that I will rename my blog again and I will create a Facebook fan page named "Musings of a mommy and wife".

This will be the second time that I will be changing my URL. If I remember correctly, my first blog address was myhappilyeverafterstory.blogspot.com. I maybe wrong though. It was something close to that. Its contents were focused mainly on my son, husband and I. I decided to change my address and delete all my posts because: first, there were a lot of blogs that have similar addresses to mine; second, it included too many of our personal information and I felt like I was exposing my son too much; and third, the quality of photos that I have uploaded were really bad.

I have then decided to change it to thehappygoluckywanderer.blogspot.com. I was initially hoping that I will be able to build my career and travel the world afterwards but I then had a change of heart. I usually give a lot of reasons why I should give up on something but to be honest, if I'm letting go of it then it's probably only because it doesn't make me happy and I'm just trying to convince myself that it's okay to be selfish and follow my heart. If you're curious, I'm talking about being a working mom. I'm probably the only person who graduated college with flying colors and then have decided that she only wants to spend her life as a stay at home mom. The only reason why I studied so hard in the first place is because I wanted to become the bread winner of our family but since I have failed that goal and started my own family too early, I have already been dreaming of dedicating myself to something else. I firmly believe that there's a reason why I'm here in this world. Maybe, I wasn't supposed to help my brothers and sister. Maybe, I was reserved for something else. Maybe, I am destined to pave the way for someone who will help more people than I can. Maybe, I was supposed to take care of my son and help him grow up as a good man. I may also be wrong again but I'm just trying to find my purpose. Fun fact about me is that the reason I have chosen to major in tourism management was because I wanted to help those who are weary and tired from work to relax and realize that life is still good.

I'm sorry that there wasn't really a list of my daily milestones for now. Today is my son's birthday. He was tired from playing all afternoon. He's now fast asleep and this is really the only time that I can type a long post like this.

I'm really thankful for this day because before my son went to bed, I asked him if he enjoyed his birthday and he said yes. He said he was happy that he got to play a lot. He was cranky all morning and afternoon so I'm really grateful that at the end of the day, all he remembers are still the good stuff.

I'll just change my blog address and create my Facebook fan page tomorrow. My eyelids are getting heavy. A day after today, this blog will be musingsofamommyandwife.blogspot.com. Good night!
