Time is a funny thing. One moment I'm wishing for this stage of life to pass and then next moment I'm looking back wondering where it went. I remember, very distinctly, sitting on my bed when I was in 7th grade wondering what life must be like and how wonderful it all must be. I remember wondering about who I would fall in love with, what my wedding day would look like... my future was an endless open book of blank pages just waiting for time to fill it all in. The story of my life was written as I read it.
I felt infinate power to steer my destiny. I wouldn't settle for anything less than what I saw in my dreams. Time is funny... now my dreams no longer revolve around me. I have settled because it was the right thing to do. In all reality, I haven't settled. I have more than enough. An amazing man loves me, I have two beautiful little girls with dreams of their own, and a God that's so big that people miss His blessings and grace. I'm grateful for so much, in this season of life as well as seasons that have long passed. I don't want to be standing at the end of my life and all I can remember is wishing away the time. In the here and now... that's where I want to find my joy and contentment. Right here, right now.
(Except I can't WAIT for my kitchen to be done!!! ;D)
