We are less than a week away from entering the 12th month of the year.
Time is always such a crazy thing to me. I have no idea how it speeds up and slows down and then speeds up again. I don’t understand how we lose track of time or where the time goes. All I know is that it’s precious.
The kids and I spent last New Year’s Eve making our vision boards together and we were in bed by 10:15 because that’s just how I roll.
All year my goals have been nagging at me to keep paying attention to them. I keep moving forward and taking steps trying to get closer, but they still feel so far away.
I realized lately that I forget to stop and look at how far I’ve come in my pursuits.
Don’t we all do that?
There is so much to do and so much to accomplish. We can always be better, go further, and do more… so we forget to look back at where we started.
It wasn’t that long ago I was in survival mode and hiding from the world.
I am sure it was just the other day that I was speaking from my head instead of my heart and not saying the things that matter.
It feels like it was yesterday that I thought it was better to be strong than to tell the truth about how I felt.
There is so much more I want to do, so many more people I want to connect with and meet, and so many more lives I want to touch. I forget to pause and notice where I started.
Have you stopped to take a moment and look at how far you come?
You’re really doing great in this game of life… and I’m proud to be your friend.
