Dana > December 14, Los Altos, CA:  Did any of us know how great we had it as a child?  I guess the saying goes youth is wasted on the young.  But they seem to enjoy the hell out of it.  Even as an adult, I can look back 2, 5, 10 years and realize (in hindsight) that I didn't know how great things were.  Always so much emphasis on what is missing and what I don't have.  Life is great right now, and I would love to believe that I actually know HOW great...but maybe in a few years.
Dana > January 25, Forest Hills, NY: Fear is probably my most powerful motivator.  But (unless my safety is threatened) I don't believe it EVER has my best interest at heart.  The only way I have discovered to keep it from influencing me to go down a path that I don't want to is to talk through it.  With someone; anyone.
Dana > January 27, Forest Hills, NY:  Today was just one of those days where everything is just great.  Its always pretty easy to find fault with something about a day.  Today's issues would have been not quite enough detergent to wash my clothes, leaving my gloves at home during a quick walk to the market, or wanting a little more salad with dinner.  When those are my beefs with a day, I think its gone pretty well.
Dana > February 15, Los Altos, CA:  Lots of my friends have children.  My sister has two.  I have been around plenty of kids and seen that it can be simultaneously the most wonderful and challenging responsibility you can take on.  Kids are great and adorable (obviously).  One of the best things about having so much time off was the fact that I was able to become closer to some of my friends' kids.  It opened me up a bit to interacting with them.  And I love being around them, reading to them, chatting with them....so much more than I used to.  But it also brings up lots of thoughts for me.  One, I am still not much closer to my sister's kids.  And two, I am not sure whether I want children of my own.  As I've gotten older, I have thought more and more about adoption, but I don't know if raising kids is something I want to do or not.
