good. better. best.






I want to be better.
Not better than anyone else.  Just better than I am. 
I want to be better at blogging.
  For no reason other than for myself. 
I enjoy it.  Reading others.  Writing my own.  It's inspiring in a way words do little justice.
A little while ago I came across some posts analyzing one's motivation for blogging.
It got me thinking. 
At first I felt sorry for myself thinking it was my way of connecting with a world outside of the toddler/baby universe I currently live in.  I thought, how sad that I am so lonely.  But that is not it at all.  
It allows me access to things and people, talent and friends, that I would never otherwise be blessed to know.  I am grateful for it.  I am better because of it.  I am happier with it. 
I hope that I come across as real, not showy.  Because that is what I enjoy in a blog.  The bad and ugly along with the good and glorious.  
Anyways.

I want to be a better
 mother, wife, friend, daughter, sister, aunt. 

I want to sew better.
Create more.
Read more.
Write more.

I want to eat better.
Play more.
Clean less.  But have a cleaner, more organized house. 
I want to cook better.
Save better.
Go to bed earlier.
Procrastinate less.
Sit up straighter.
Drink more water.
I want to take better pictures.
Get a better camera.
Serve better.  Help more.  Give more.
I want to shop better, faster.
I want to dress better.
Do yard work better. 
Exercise better. 
Etc. Etc. Etc.
Blah blah blah!

I feel you on this one. I'm constantly coming up with things that I wish I was better at. Maybe now is a good time to get to work on those things! So overwhelming though. We'll get there...
