EXCUSES

EXCUSES

Whenever I had an excuse for something

my mom would always say could’ve, should’ve, would’ve.

I always hoped I would go to photography school.

My more practical side kept me from going

as it wouldn’t be something I could count on as a

career. "There are too many photographers

out there better than me."

That’s what I would tell myself.

The other day I met someone who did what I

didn’t do. She is a photographer, actually

a photojournalist. She’s also a mom and

a wife. She was able to do it all.

I wonder if I hadn’t made excuses and

BELIEVED in myself more, if it

COULD’VE BEEN.

I know just because I am a Mom and

a wife now that "my life" isn’t done,

however,

I can’t take that chance right now. When

Parker is older and we are

more "settled" maybe it will be the

"right time". I don’t know if this is another

EXCUSE or if I am being smart.

What are your thoughts? Is it another excuse or is

it the sensible thing to do?

been me?
