So, I have been thinking alot lately about life. What does it mean to be happy? What are the things that are really important? How much do I clutter myself with destractions from what is really the core of life?
Sitting on the roof of my two bedroom apartment overlooking the downtown of an adorably quaint town I realized, wow life will never be this simple again. I spend so much time looking forward to the next thing and thinking about my next "big step". Maybe this is it. Maybe I am living in my goal, maybe I am in my big moment. What if....I am wasting so much time with the clutter of materialism and looking forward to bigger and more exciting things that I will miss out on the beautiful serenity of what is here and now. Instead of missing out on some huge opportunity, the real tragety of my life would be to miss out on loving where I am right here and right now. So, all that said, it is all in my perspective. I choose to find good in where I am. I choose to find ways to be what God wants me to be starting from this time forward. No more waiting for the perfect moment or the perfect place. I am blessed with so many things, so many people, and so many opportunities-Happiness is a realization of what I have now!
