Isn't it funny how one day you think your life is going nowhere and the next it just takes off? That is EXACTLY what has been happening to me.
Just a few months ago, I thought that I wasn't going anywhere. I didn't know what I wanted to be when I grew up. I was frustrated with my boring job.I wanted to go on a mission. I wanted to move away to school. I wanted to travel the world. The list could go on and on, but I will spare you the rest. A few months ago, I didn't know where I was supposed to be. Flash to now: I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up. My job has definitely NOT been boring since June. I don't know if I'm going to go (or even want to go) on a mission or not. I still want to move away to school (eventually). And I still want to travel the world.
So, I bet you are thinking: "Okay, Kat, your life hasn't changed that much, so how has it taken off?" Answer: Attitude. Yes, I have doubled my school load (I really do enjoy going to school full time). Yes, I am helping with a MAJOR project at work. You're right, my life hasn't changed that much, but I feel like I wouldn't be feeling this great about life if I didn't want to. Don't get me wrong, not everything in my life are rainbows and butterflies, but let me ask, whose is? Life is all about choices, and did you know that you can CHOOSE to be happy? I know I didn't always know that, but I do now, and that is what counts! Yes, there are hard times, and yes, there are times when we do feel sad, angry, frustrated, etc. However, if we didn't feel that way, we wouldn't be human. So, I say to you, my fellow readers, CHOOSE to be happy TODAY. Pick one thing in your life that gives you motivation and hold to it, smile at a stranger, and find at least one thing you're grateful for today.
"Happiness will never come to those who fail to appreciate what they already have."
