It's been running through my head that I need to write, I need to write. But every time I sit down to do it, my brain draws a blank. Correction: It automatically starts to edit itself. What ends up happening is I have some wonderful thoughts that never get put down... anywhere. And they remain just that, thoughts.
So this may not make any sense, but it's a start. So that's what I'm going with.
I've had a really good year so far. And I am grateful for it. I don't really remember the last time I was truly upset about something, and I don't remember the last time I was truly mad. I mean, I throw some temper tantrums every now and then, and sure sometimes I'll start to brood and find random things to complain about, but these are things that I actively have to dial down and rid myself of.
I am lucky. And I am happy. And of course there will always be more room for growth. But life as it is now is perfectly sweet! It's my new thing, being in the present!
I wake up with my joy and almost always smiling (except when it's the crack of dawn and it's cold outside). But green juice (and let's face it, sometimes coffee) fixes that right up.
This compared to a year ago when I thought that everything was in a state of 'almost there' is quite a different perspective. And I have to say I like it. I like being happy everyday and being grateful everyday. I like appreciating everything I have around me and not trying to control every single outcome of every single situation. I don't know it all, and I like being pleasantly surprised.
So here's to you World! Thank you for being awesome today! And thank you giving me a few moments on this beautiful summer morning, to put some words down. Thank you!
