I agree. No one has it all. And a major life choice is to be happy with what you have, in the moment, instead of seeking the mythical beast of “having it all” right now.
Ms. Mayer should be congratulated for landing her new job. Not because she is a woman, or pregnant, but because she has been recognized for her achievements and potential to achieve even more. She will have the power to shape the Internet experiences of billions of people. She will also have the power to shape the life of a single person, her son. Her job will allow her to buy him the best nannies and external child care available, but it will not buy him time with her. If she feels comfortable with that, that is her choice. But she won’t be having it all. She will just be doing what men have done for centuries: creating children, and staying on the job.
Altogether too sensible, that Tasha.

‘Having it all’ is like, a lot of accomplishments. Accomplishments are a result of being motivated, gifted and lucky. The gifted part is lucky. The lucky part is lucky. Without those two parts one can not ‘have it all’ and with those parts one is still, just lucky. Gee, doesn’t sound like something worthy of life long pursuit. Perhaps life is not ‘having it all’. Are we human beings or human doings? As we are being, we do, but are doings do not make us. ‘Having it all’ is both misleading and a myth. On the other hand appreciating who one is, a person made in the image of God, and what one has; abilities and circumstances however little or large those may be, and then living that out sounds truly fulfilling.
Individuals can ‘have it all.’
It’s how they define the ‘all.’
I have friends who are stay at home moms and ‘have it all.’
For these women the ‘all’ is their family.
Service. Sacrifice. Love.
Commendable indeed. Seem like a rare breed today.
Sad how society views their ‘alls’ with such disdain.
