Wanting what we don't have???

Is it true that in life we always want what we don't have? I spent this weekend with my sister and my two amazing nieces. It was the first "girls" trip I have had with just my sister in a long time. In fact I cannot remember the last time that the two of us just hung out (no offensive Jeffrey I love you too!!!) but sometimes you just need sister time, it was great!!!

My sister and I are complete opposites... and when I say complete opposites I mean in every way. She is blonde... I am burnet... I tend to be well endowed up top but little on the bottom... again opposite... but it is just not physically we are also opposite in life as well. She has an amazing family... a husband that treats her like a queen... and two girls, one seven, and one well one. They are amazing. I am single... no man in sight... no kids... and again none in sight. She likes coffee, I hate it. Even in school we were opposite... she loved spelling... I liked math and science. Funny I guess that two people who have the same genes can be so different.

She confessed to me that she envies me sometimes. She wishes she had put off having a family so she too could be career oriented and come and go as she pleases. But at the same time would never give up her family for anything. This got me to thinking about how people always tend to want what they don't have. And I thought about this for a bit... Do I want what I don't have? Hmmm...

I have to admit I see my sister and her husband and I am a little jealous that she has found that someone who completes her... but at the same time I am very content in my life right now and truth... I don't want my sister's life. Not because it is not wonderful and fulfilling... I had the most amazing time this weekend... but I am not ready.

I think my sister and I are complete opposites for a reason. We both get to be apart of each other’s life... it is said that you can't lead two life’s... that is not true... I get to experience a wonderful family life through my sister... and she gets to experience the ups and downs of being single through me. Together we have the perfect life.
