i often struggle with contentment – i look ahead, remember when and often loose focus on today. i was reading this morning and came across this and had to share
in any aspect of life – from parenting to blog growth, from marriage to book writing – another goal always lies ahead. There’s always another dream to strive for. And that’s good and right. We invite beauty into our lives by living with dreams.
but often we don’t realize that the now we currently live in represents dreams of yesterday fulfilled.
how many of us hoped for the day we could become mothers? yet does that hope seem as thrilling when our two year old screams for hours in the middle of the night?
last night little people interrupted my sleep three times: two potty accidents and one nightmare. As my groggy eyes slowly opened this morning, my first intentional thought was a phrase my husband Steve and i say often – “it doesn’t get any better than this”
because right now, THIS MOMEMT, is my only guarantee
So today, in spite of life’s hardships, pain, or disappointments, make a decision. Make it for your children and your husband, but most of all for yourself.
WANT WHAT YOU HAVE
