those three little words.

there are three little words that my life has been measured against.

Over the last decade, I've fallen short.
I've made excuses for why those three words aren't in my life.
I've gotten defensive when people have tried to push them on me as though they are a measure of my worth instead of a worthless measure.
And for the last eight years, I've wrestled with those words, trying to figure out if or why I've placed some intrinsic value on them.

But in the last few months, my perspective on those three little words has changed drastically. And my actions toward those words have also changed significantly.

those three little words??

Certified Public Accountant.

stay tuned.

My mom never got her CPA, she's just in BA, but specializes in accounting. I wish I were good with numbers, that way I could make over 6 figures like my mom. Oh well, I guess it's not always about money.
