Just a Friendly Reminder…
I’ve read quite a few of my favorite bloggers lately worried about meeting the status quo of married with children at a certain age. I just wanted to throw a few examples out there:
Britney Spears- married (twice) at 22 in 2004, two kids, absolute train wreck ever since.
Pamela Anderson- married Tommy Lee (twice) and Kid Rock (once), divorced, two kids, contracted Hepatitis.
Princess Diana- married at 20 to become a princess (“every girl’s dream”) with two kids, husband cheated, had big ears, she suffered untimely death.
On the plus side-
Mother Theresa- never married (although granted, not the most exciting sex life), but widely regarded as saintly.
Goldie Hawn- blissfully happy with long-term boyfriend, three children + step-child, regarded as one of the greatest comedic actresses of her generation.
Susan Sarandon- together almost 20 years with Tim Robbins, two children, still regarded as insanely sexy and talented actress, political activist.
Oprah Winfrey- goddess of daytime TV, known to value friendship as at least equal to steady romantic relationship, billionaire, no children.
Live life on your own terms. Get married and have children when (and if) you’re ready. “In the end, the race is long, and only with yourself.”
