Wish I did.....

anything but what I do. I know, sounds so ungrateful, but I'm just throwing it out there. I went to see the movie "Julie and Julia" last night and I so could relate to Julie's feelings of being lost in her job. She and Julia Childs found a way to make what they always dreamed of happen. I want to be them. Most times I feel like I have wasted my time doing a job that feels unfulfilling and meaningless in hopes that it is for the best interest of my kids. I'm no martyr, believe me, I whine about it all the time. I feel conflicted a lot of the time wondering what God's take on that is; not the whining part, I know the answer to that! I am extremely grateful just to have a job, don't get me wrong, and I work with some of the most amazing people you could ever meet, it's just not my "calling". I need to go on and find that.
If I can't find that "calling" I would want to be a bear. God has a perfect plan for their life. They get to eat as much as they want in the fall, gain hundreds of pounds, go to sleep and skip the worst time of the year, wake up skinny. Brilliant! I think I'll ask God why that wasn't an option for me when I get to heaven.
