Take time to give back to those who give you the most. Are we always asking and wanting? Are we taking more than giving in a relationship? It's a new year. It's a new start. What are we doing with it? The same thing? Change is growth and as inevitable as old age. Are we becoming butterflies or shriveled prunes?
If we frequently find ourselves waiting for the "good times" or waiting to find a friend or waiting for a better house, job, life..... maybe we should ask ourselves why? Can we find joy in now and are we doing all we can to make those new friends or make those changes that will make us happier people? Most importantly, are we thankful for the jobs we have now, the house we have now, the life we have now, the family we have now? If your life is constantly yearning for a fast forward button... I think there is a problem.... you are not living today.
It's okay to have goals in dreams. In fact... .you should. But... don't let tomorrow erase all your todays.
I love my family and I am so blessed with a good job, a house, plenty of money, friends, opportunities, the gospel, and a husband who means everything to me and loves me unconditionally. I am thankful for today.
Well I became a statistic this summer. Eating out too much has made me gain back some weight. The husband has spoiled me way too much and we've been eating out too much. I have done some things well this summer though. I have reconnected with cousins and other family members, spent time with friends, and made some trips that were enjoyable and relaxing. I have taken the time to smell the roses and see the sunrises. Now if I can just cut back on the sweets during all this happiness! :D
