So, This is What It's All About For Me

For the last few months I have been writing. I have been building blogs and social networking sites. I am working from home and homeschooling my kids. In a way, I have dropped out of society. Not really, I mean, I still go to the grocery and have jury duty, take my kids to the library and to piano lessons...so I get out, I'm just not a blue collar worker, and I don't believe the public school system has anything to offer my children.

My past is kind of a sad story, so I don't like to talk about it or write about it. People keep telling me to write a book, in fact, my friend Bette has practically challenged me to write about my life. She gave me a deadline to write my outline in two months. The idea of writing about my life would be to show people that bad times aren't always bad times. Sometimes we are making the bad times bad because of our thought patterns, sometimes we need the bad times to appreciate the better times, sometimes we are just learning what life is about.

I am still learning what life is about.

My parents think (as most parents do) that life is about working, saving and retiring. They say that getting old sucks, they cry about their aches and pains. They eat fast food and don't believe in vitamins or drinking water. Their doctors fill them up with prescriptions and they are worried about retirement. I am 41. I am no longer a youngster. It may seem that I have "pie in the sky" dreams...but at least I am middle-aged and I still dream. I eat pretty good, I take my supplements, I drink water and I enjoy walking around the block a few times a week. I am following my dreams. I am the boss of me, not some young guy who took a few college courses and has a Napoleon Complex. My children learn at their own pace, they have their own business too, and we spend all our days together working, eating, playing, planning, and supporting one another.

This blog will serve as a spill-over from my other blog. At www.LifeontheMoon.biz you will read about my business ventures and how I am helping others make money at home. This blog will be an outlet for me to help me write my book, and get ideas out in written form.

You can get to know more about me by bookmarking this blog and reading a few times a week. You can also join my Social Networking Site, and I can introduce you to a multitude of people who are my friends all over the world. (see the banners at the bottom of my blog) You can also e-mail me at MoonLaLa@slashmymail.com
