Some Day - What Are You Waiting To Do?

By: Jane Powell - Meditations for Women

My ten year old daughter asked, "Mom, can we build a miniature doll house?" I said, "Sure, some day." Cassy quizzed me, "When will it be some day?"

We all do it. Put off learning something new or doing something we have always wanted to experience. We tell ourselves ...

Some day... I will find the time to quilt, cross stitch, scrapbook, or decorate cakes.

Some day... I would like to learn how to golf, down hill ski, shoot pool, or play the harmonica.

Some day... it would be thrilling to run in a marathon, go white water rafting, catch a fish, or drive an eighteen-wheeler.

Some day... it would be fun to ride a horse, take up bird watching, change my hair color, or milk a cow.

Some day... I might attend a class for digital photography, computer training, drawing, or get a tattoo.

Some day... I hope to write a book, take voice lessons, audition for a part in a play, or learn how to belly dance.

"When will it be some day?" Cassy's innocent, but painfully honest question triggered a deep realization within me. The miniature doll house we built together, eleven years ago, reminds me that unless we decide to make it happen, some day remains barely out of our reach, until it disappears.

What desires and experiences are you reserving for ... some day? What's holding you back? Time, training, money, courage, discipline? Instead of waiting until ... some day, do what you've always wanted to do ... and do it now!
