Superwoman?



But where is my cape?

After I passed the Bar Exam I received the nicest messages from so many people. "Superwoman" was a word I heard a lot that day. When the congrats started rolling in I immediately started replying "haha. thanks but really I am trainwreck." It was a busy day and congrats were pouring in. I stopped replying. At the end of the day, I logged in and was overwhelmed by the outpour of kindness and congrats.
Superwoman was the last thing I felt like.
Superwoman is not what I see. I see the apartment that never quite gets clean or never stays that way. I see the 40lbs of law school weight that I still need to lose( not the 45lbs that I have since June). I see the marathons that I haven't run. I see my "Walmart Parenting" moments. But maybe that isn't what other people see? Maybe its time to cut myself a little slack. Focus on the things that I'm getting right...pretend that I am Superwoman for a day...without her cape.
