Today is Wednesday. And I am so happy where I am in my life right now. Last year this time I had different goals for myself. As each year goes by, my emotions and outlook about life & love vigorously changes. I used to be a mixture of emotions. Used to wait until a particular day/date before I decide to make the changes I need to make. Unsure if I am supposed to make those changes. But now my mind is clear about who I was, who I am and where I’m going. This ongoing battle that I used to have with my mind versus my heart was such an incredible power that it literally expanded whatever I touched. When I was faced with a challenge, obstacle or problem, my tendency was to cut it off. Now I nurture it. Now, through the process of elimination, I evaluate the situation first to see if it’s even worth my personal care. Our thinking process harbors the issue. Our hearts…well…simply tells us different. We talk about it, but we don’t come to a solution. We describe it vividly, but are unable to recognize it when it’s in our face. We monitor its progress day by day, imagining how much it’s growing & how it’s effects are devastating every aspect of our lives. Yet we still allow it to. You know what we’re doing? We’re giving it more value than it’s worth. We’re settling due to our selfishness. Where do we find that strength to stop it before we hurt ourselves? Why wait until New Years? Or your birthday?

Are you able to make the right long-term decisions instead of just living for today? I simple adore being embraced, appreciated & loved for the woman I am. And nothing’s better than being acknowledged of these things by your family, friends & significant other. But what do you do when it’s all coming from the right places at the wrong time? I’ve grown to notice that the most beautiful things happens at the most inconvenient times in our lives. It gets to the point where you have to pick, choose and then eliminate one of those inconveniences. We can think, speak and bring the best possible outcome into existence by focusing on where we’re going, not on where we think we are. Think about it…how far can you go living for today instead of catering to your future happiness? Best things happens to those who wait huh? I waited (for years) and everything is falling into place. Exactly where I want them to.

But what if you’re tired of waiting? What if you end up having faith into the number one thing you don’t believe in? They say everything happens for a reason right? Well maybe this time, you should go against the grain and just see what exactly is the reason why you continuously challenge yourself. Stop focusing on “what’s not there” & be grateful for what is.

Note to self: There’s nothing special about today. It’s not a Monday, nor is it my birthday. It’s not New Years, nor is this a resolution. If you want to make a change, start now.
