i am so blessed. while things in my life are far from perfect, i have so many things to be thankful for. i have my health (mostly). i have unbelievable friends. i love my family. my kid has fledged and is soaring on her own. my niece is going to be a doctor. my nephew is a sweetheart who takes care of my car. i have a good job.
just a few things that i am thankful for. i think all too often, we get so wrapped up in the minutiae of day to day living that we lose sight of the bigger picture. i know that happens to me. how many times i've said 'there isn't enough time in the day', when what i mean is that i've crammed so much into it that i'm rushed and stressed. no one's fault but my own. and while i've learned that it is far better to stop and smell the roses, i often forget this and rush headlong into the future. then, i look back and wonder where the time went?!
here's to slowing down, enjoying life. it's far too short and i hope that i make sure all those who are dear to me know how much i love them.
