interesting weekend

This weekend I went on a "woman's retreat" with my church. Ususally I would never go on something actually entitled "woman's" but I was asked to play percussion for worship so I went. It was interesting becuase there were about 75 women there and probebly about 70 were in their 30's, 40's, or 40's with kids. I was pretty much the only one in my 20's, unmarried, and without children. It was a little disconcerting.
I met some really nice people and had some good conversations but at the same time it truly confirmed that the life I saw was not for me. I cannot see myself as a 30 year old with 2 kids and a surburban life. I am not saying that there is anything wrong with that but I want more than that. I may end up being 30 with 2 kids but I think there are many ways to live that life...

Or maybe I will be 40 and single... we'll see...
