WHY NOT ME?

I was brought up in  working blue collar family, both parents did not finish high school but worked very hard their whole life's.
I did not have a lot and would never dream about one day going to college or going on vacation- that was for the rich kids-
Growing up I would always think to myself "why not me?".
I can work hard and own my own home some day- why not me?
I can have a family and one day see them go to college- why not me?
I can have a management job and get promoted- why not me?
I can go on vacation to places like Disney and Hawaii- why not me?
Some day I will take my children and grandchildren all on vacation to Disney- why not me?
I have been blessed to accomplish all the above.

Now that I am older I see retired people taking there time and walking around without a care in the world, enjoying every day with kids and grand kids and once again I find myself asking- Why not me?
