I had a weird dream last night.  I was selfish.  I was more concerned with how I looked to the world versus Doug's feeling.  He was so happy, but I was embarrassed.  At the end, I finally realized that his happiness was all that mattered, but I was still feeling self centered.  I know dreams aren't reality.  I know they can't be interpreted literally.  But somehow, I still carry this feeling of guilt and it's been hours since I woke up.  I truly want to live my life in such a way that my husband feels loved, supported and yes, even challenged to grow as a person.  I want my children to see how love and respect and commitment make a strong and happy family.  I strive for that everyday and hope that's the message they're receiving, even though they're too young to understand.

Dreams can drive you crazy, can't they? Hard to believe you consider yourself selfish when you are one of the most giving, generous people I know.
