I'm gonna be honest and say today hasn't been the best. Sure, the weather is beautiful and it's finally cool and crisp, my food tastes really satisfying, my friends have made me laugh. But I've been trailing off into the future. I keep worrying about this imaginary "end destination" when really that isn't the point. It isn't the point of living, to just keep looking ahead and planning everything. At least to me it isn't. Isn't it about the journey getting there? Coming across different cities and books and people, and learning all along the way?
Days like this I know I have to snap out of it. It's getting easier to do that, but every once in a while I always get that feeling like, what's really going to happen? And hey, it's okay to feel like that. It's okay to be uncertain and afraid. Like I said a few days ago, we are all going to feel those feelings. It's important to remember to always come back to this moment. The room you are sitting in, the journal you are holding, the birds you hear chirping. Everything is working out in divine order. Everything is happening for a reason. And the path you are on now is the one you are supposed to be on. The STEPS you take to get to your destination are what matter. It's life. And it's a crazy ride.
Without going through these annoying phases life would be SO BORING! Think about it! If everything was easy and perfect, we would all be living the same life. A life of dullness and no originality and no fun, and no time to actually work hard and better yourself. It's in these moments that you might just be hit with that spark of inspiration.
I know when I'm able to go outside with a good book, or when I'm able to Skype my friends, I always feel so much better. But if any of you feel like this sometimes, hey, I feel you. I know what it's like. And I'm always here for you. And I want to remind you that this journey is what's so special about your life. It's what you make it. It's okay to cry, but pick yourself up, dust yourself off and realize you are so much more than you know.
