My friend thinks she missed her calling in life and now she's stuck with this one. This life. This thing that is different from what she thinks in a moment of haste was the calling she missed. She also thinks she better just GET OVER IT.
And since I've always got something to say...here's what I have to say about this! I reject your reality and substitute my own! We're modern women. Free range chicks...pastured if we're lucky...and we've got all this cool technology right at our fingertips.
Like Call Waiting. The call waits until you are ready to address it, all the while softly beeping in your ear that it's still there. This calling, it doesn't have your full attention, but you know its there waiting for you when you've finished with life's most urgent business. Hung up on the mother-in-law. Scheduled the dentists appointments. Ended the phone interview. Ordered the graduation/wedding invitations. Finished with this life you're living now without getting over it because it'll still be waiting there and all you have to do is click over to it.
And Voice Mail that holds the information from your calling in life so you can go back to it later. Later after the busy part of your day/parenting/life has ended and you're ready to try something new.
And Call Forwarding so that calling in life that is looking for you at an old location can find you now. Find you here. On this new device. In this life. In this place. Because you were kind enough to have your callings forwarded...wasn't that so nice of you. Yes.
Seriously...there's absolutely no reason to miss a calling these days! Pick up the phone...it's for YOU!
