Having it all

I was watching "The Women" last night and was really intrigued by some one of the characters.

Meg Ryan's character had an incredible opportunity offered to her and she said she needed to think about it. Everyone was flabbergasted that she didn't just jump for joy and kiss the feet of the woman offering her "her big break". And I loved it!

Here is someone who 'gets it'. She understands that success and happiness are about doing what makes you happy, not what everyone else thinks you should do. Someone who sees that 'some boutique orders' could make her happier than supplying all of the Saks stores. Someone who knows that spending time with her daughter is more important to her, and will make her happier and more fulfilled than building an empire.

She knew her own heart and made the choices that supported her desires and her vision for her life and I wish us all the strength and vision to do the same.
