Predicting

What will your life be like in three years?

I searched my phone to see the pictures taken November 2020 to jog my memory. I had a screenshot taken by my younger one that said Putin has Parkinsons and he would leave Russian Presidency in January 2021! If he had done that a war would have been avoided.

Anyway I love to plan. But in the process of doing it sometimes I forget to live in the present. This creates so much anxiety that I loose my sleep over it! In fact that is an important lesson I learnt from my special one. Anxiety being one of his major issues.

So I do not want to plan or predict anything for the future but I have set up myself with goals. I want my boy to become more independent than what he is today and that means even if he has added one more skill to the path of independence I would be happy.

I told a friend today that I have no deadlines with regard to my boy. I have a free hand and this has greatly helped the past few years. So the sky is the limit and even if I don’t reach it I do not worry about it.

I have a goal for my boy. So what about me? Keep doing what I am doing now and try not to loose myself and read the previous paragraph multiple times so I do not fall into the anxiety wagon😃.

Anyhow this was a fun prompt. I checked my phone for pictures from previous years. In fact early morning my brother sent a picture of my younger one on his Dad’s lap when he was just 2 years old taken this date. 17 years later I see my husband has significant hair loss😊! So three years from now I do not think he is going to have more hair! I do not know much about my life but I do know we all would be old with more wrinkles, grey hair and receeding hair line. But I pray that we are still leading a healthy life!
