The Grass is always Greener, so they say…

Sometimes I question if Marco and I have made the right life decisions.  This typically happens when it is that time of the month or my SIL gets a GLK two weeks after a 14 day trip to Paris.  No, I’m not bitter, really. 

I question if I made the right decision to not peruse my love of hospitality when we moved or if Marco should have gone to USC/NYC instead of UNCSA in order to make more connections within the industry.   After I feel sorry for myself for a few minutes {cough…hours} I realize that I truly am blessed and that the grass isn’t always greener. 

If we moved back to Georgia we would live in Highlands in hopefully a house.  Marco would be miserable because we weren’t in LA and would probably have to settle for corporate videos or editing.  I have no idea where I would be.  I’d be working maybe as an assistant or working my way up some corporate ladder.  I would want a baby sooner rather than later.  Weekends would consist of family parties, fun Saturday nights out with friends, road trips across the south, college football with friends.  Honestly, it sounds amazing {not the work stuff}, but it’s not for us. 

We might live in a one bedroom apartment, have crazy student loan debt, not be able to travel to Europe right now or have the clothing budget I desire, but we are happy.  In the end this is what matters.  When I was at my stylist salon on Saturday morning she said I looked different.  Before I left she mentioned it again and I told her I think it’s because I am happy.  I truly am.  I know this is the plan God has for M and I and I couldn’t be more grateful or excited to see what else he has in store for us.
