*Wordful Wednesday is for those of us that like to showcase a photo(s) but that just can’t seem keep our mouths shut about it (them). If you’d like to play along, post a photo {or more if you are so inclined} on your blog, and let the words roll.
Make me a happy camper by “capturing” my new Seven Clown Circus button AND please, hyperlink to my site www.sevenclowncircus.com. Lastly, be sure to add yourself to Mr. Linky. Thanks for playing along!

I’ve always been fascinated with paths. Paths that are taken, paths that are not; reasons for choosing one path and not the other. Pondering both diverging and intersecting paths is something I spend probably too much time thinking about, but think about them, I do.
This is one of my favorite photos because it clearly illustrates the path that I’ve chosen to take in my life. I never thought that I’d have 5 children. I always expected a much more {Angie} centered existence. I never came close to comprehending how much joy my family would bring me. When I embarked on the path that included marriage to a wonderful man and the ensuing birth of my children, I hadn’t a clue as to the way that path would change and mold me.
Sometimes I think of the ways my life would be different if I had continued on in school to get the PhD I desired. I think of the ways that path would be different from the one I’m on now, and I shake my head.
I really believe that I could have had that degree, yet I chose something different, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision.
I may not be an expert on one particular subject with a piece of paper certifying my knowledge, but I am an expert on things that can’t be measured or documented with a test.
Walking {and sometimes stumbling} on the path I’ve chosen is the best choice I could have made.
Thank goodness I made it.
