The Calm After the Storm
Today I woke up feeling blah and filled with anxiety. I also had this lingering thought that I was thiiis close to taking that step back to revert to my old ways. So I went to work out which made my mood a lot better & then I remembered a conversation I had with someone who is on a similar path as I am and honestly is probably the only person who could understand what this transition really is because she is going through it too :)
There have been a sequence of events this past month that have really opened my eyes to life- the daily blessings and frustrations which has introduced me to a new way of approaching the act of gratitude. I am 22 years old and have this (at times) uncontrollable feeling that “I just want to be there already!” I want to be at that point in my life where I am already in my career, have my own place, & traveling the world. Sometimes I forget that I am heading in that direction, that “that life” will be mine really soon—that I am not going to be at this place in my life forever, that this really is just the beginning. That all there really is to do is learn as much as I can & be happy with where I am and what I have.
I have never had this much calm and peace within myself.
“It ain’t about how fast I get there, it ain’t about what’s waiting on the other side, it’s the climb […] keep movin’ keep fightin’ keep the faith”
Food for thought: The moment you let forgiveness in and stop fighting your reality (whatever that may be for you), you begin to be present in life.
