You can’t have everything…or can you?

It’s funny (strange, not ha-ha) how the messages of innocence and hope disappear as we grow older. By the time we have children, businesses, and…responsibilities (don’t you hate that word!), we’re fully aware that we can’t have everything.
Everybody says so. Sound wisdom tells us that we must be cautious, frugal and somber in our choices. Responsible…Having it all seems like such a selfish aspiration. But the willingness to entertain the idea that you can have it all is a gift that I hope I can give to my kids and anyone else who will listen. Now, that I’ve learned it, I’ll take it to the grave with me.
