I do struggle with life....the lack of general happiness and being content. The problem is that I am something of a dreamer. Always working on the next thing. Always wondering what the next thing will be. My life is full of options and I get to choice. Sometimes it is all the options available to me that slow me down and I see them as a curse instead of a blessing.
Yesterday a friend asked me for money. This is someone I have known for almost 10 years and who I have given money to in the past. She is a single mother of 4. Her options were asking me for money so she could put food on the table this weekend. That was her reality. Very limited options. It reminded me to see all my choices as blessings.
I love that. And hate that it took something like that to remind me of all my blessings.
Be Well!!
