I have been feeling very reflective recently. This is what happens when things begin to change. Change is necessary and unavoidable, I'm sure you've noticed. It's also not always easy to embrace because our habits become so safe and familiar to us.
Why leave comfort for something scary and unknown?
Here are some things I've been focusing on lately to keep myself from going insane:
1. Finding beauty in small things. Pollen aside, the world in bloom is a beautiful one.
2. Seeing Brand New again this month- this time with Stephen!
3. A visit from my best friend before she moves far, far away to Australia!
4. Stephen brought this amazing chocolate back from his trip to CA this month.
How cute is that packaging?! Also, one of the chocolates had bananas in it!
5. Stephen! He has been the most supportive, loving, and caring person I could have ever asked for. He has been proud of my accomplishments and encouraging every step of the way. I am so lucky to have spent 6 years with this person.
Among difficult or stressful times, it can be easy to focus on things that don't make us happy and don't fulfill us. I've been so guilty of this behavior for most of my life, so I've been trying to switch up my old, bad patterns to improve my life and take charge of my happiness.
I've learned recently, YOU are in charge of your life.
Sometimes you have to change your mindset and create your own pathways.
Try thinking about what brings you joy and focus on those things instead of the negativity!
