Here and Now.

There's something so beautiful about being present; in the here and now.

When I am present, the following occur: lot's of smiles, relaxation takes over my soul, I can breathe freely and more comfortably, joy, love, and lot's of laughter.

When I am not present however, the above mentioned do not occur and instead, anxiety, stress, over thinking, and analyzing, show their ugly faces.

So being present in the here and now, works for me.  It helps me to stay centered and more aware of what is actually going on in my life, without getting too far ahead of myself.

Week five of my resolutions chart is already in full swing and I can't express enough how much changing my thinking, has truly made a difference and influence in my life.

I look forward to just living, taking in the beauty that does still exist, and I truly let the good in.

Though there will always be sadness, anger, death, and fear in life, nowadays I focus my attention more so on the good that is present.   I am fully aware that the ugliness of life exists and always will.  But I also know that if you're too busy being stuck in the negative, you will never have time to enjoy the positive.

So why waste time?  Why waste your energy on the darkness?

It's not too say that I don't ever let myself have a bad day, because being human means allowing yourself to experience and feel fully, the bad in some days.  I just DO my best to never get too sucked in, especially when I don't need to.

I can't wait to visit my family.  I am already counting down the days, and I am just really content.  Really, very happy.

Ten more days until our six year anniversary and nothing but love and happiness consume me.  I am blessed, indeed, but I am also very proud of the relationship that I am so grateful to have.

Sometimes one must go through many hurdles to finally make it over.  Today, I find peace in knowing that all the crappy moments have led up to the most amazing moments in my life.

Love; it's what has changed me and my life in the most beautiful and encouraging ways possible.

For that, I will always be thankful and humbled.
