Hello there, Lovelies. How do you do? Today I’m having a serious nostalgic moment back into my Franchy past. More specifically, my teenage years. Back when time seemed infinite, and my biggest problem was getting my homework done. Gosh, where does the time go, seriously? No, I’m a 43-year-old woman and owner of two small businesses. Between running my businesses and handling other life events. I never seem to have enough time. Ya, time poverty is nothing to shrug off. “Time poverty—the feeling of having too many tasks and not enough time—severely diminishes well-being, leading to chronic stress, burnout, poor physical health, and lower life satisfaction.”
Today I was in bed, dreaming of all my sweet dreams. Like if I had waited until I was in my 60s to make them come true. Then I thought I don’t even know if I will make it into my 50’s, let alone my 60s. As a matter of fact, even tomorrow is not promised. Ya, Lovelies, let’s go back into time. I’m in bed, going through the mails I have been getting from colleges, inviting me to visit their schools. I also got mail from Coca-Cola and an invite to a pageant in New Jersey. Of course, on my TV was the most popular show of the time: Dawson’s Creek. Lovelies, my childhood is totally over. James Van Der Beek has run out of time. He passed away in the morning today after losing his battle with Colon Cancer. I’m genuinely sad. I’m wishing his family and friends nothing but great things in the future. He left behind 6 young children and a beautiful wife. He called his children the blond army. Which I can definitely see, as they all have beautiful blond hair. That reminds me of the sweet blond girl I saw when I was 11. In this post, I want to dedicate it to James Van Der Beek, my teenage nostalgia. May he be in eternal peace. Lovelies, time poverty is absolutely real. You never know when your time will run out forevermore. Don’t put off your dreams for a future that may not be meant to be. Don’t walk sadly through the rain. Dance excitedly, looking for the rainbow. Time poverty, unlike other poverties in life, is one that, when it goes on for too long, can cost you a century of happiness. Choose happiness; that is something no one can ever take from you. You are worth all the happiness in the world. I have more to share, stay tuned for tomorrow, ya. Bye for now with sweet love.
