Have you ever looked at your life, your priorities, your hobbies, the things you spend the majority of your time doing and wondered, "when did I get here?..". That's kind of where I've been feeling the last little while. Stuck in a place of complacency and not really knowing when or how it all got so.. bleh. I've been in this spot before, more than once, and all I can say is, I'm so glad I can now recognize it before it becomes an issue for me. Trying to reassess the important things in my life and focus more on the things that bring me joy, the things that stretch me, the things that the Lord has placed there for a purpose, instead of digging myself into an ever-deeper whole of trying to just survive.
Lately, I've felt more myself than I can remember feeling in a long time. Not that I've been unhappy, God knows I am SO blessed and I truly love my life. I adore my family and cherish every single day I am blessed enough to be with them. But, through the ups and downs and unknowns of it all, I slowly lost a bit of myself. These past few months, getting back into a really good (and enjoyable) workout routine, taking care of myself emotionally as well as physically, trying new things and putting myself out of my comfort zone at times have all made positive impacts on where/how I feel today. I've had some extremely low moments, a few pretty disappointing things thrown at me, but I've also been incredibly blessed and my eyes have just been opened a bit wider to all the wonderful things that I have to be grateful for.
No, nothing really life changing has happened, but, in a way it has. I think anything that effects positive change in your life is worth celebrating so, here I am. Feeling so thankful to be healthy, living a life I love, growing closer to my husband and children every day, making some really sweet memories and just knowing that there is only good in our future. There really are just so many beautiful reasons to be happy.
Have a wonderful week friends!!
