Finding Contentment Where I Am

I am exactly who I am meant to be in this moment. That’s taken years of therapy to say and actually mean. As an author, I spend loads of time in my imaginary world dreaming up all the stuff and things. This can be a blast, but it can keep me focused on fantasy instead of present in reality. If I am too forward thinking, I lose track of the beauty of this moment’s blessings, and that can lead to disappointment and even bitterness.

One of the ways I keep myself grounded is to be content with my life as it is now, and not lose myself in how I dream it could be. Don’t get me wrong, I’ll always be a dreamer. I just won’t trade in my joy from today for the possibility of tomorrow. My mind is a beautiful place to visit, but my reality… my reality… is an incredible place to live.
