How I Accidentally Became A Resentful Mom
And what I learned from my relentless search for fulfillment
Be careful what you wish for, and how you go about fulfilling your wishes.
Make sure you consider the consequences of any rash decisions. The aftereffects are often excruciating.
I’m a firm believer in shifting energies and reshaping our reality. After a misguided choice, you can certainly have the chance to redirect your course. Knowing doesn’t make this any easier to write about.

I’m luckier than some. He’s a kind, generous man who treats me with respect. But we couldn’t stay together. Our relationship was doomed to failure when we impulsively pursued parenthood too soon.
