Lately I have been reflecting quite a bit on how it seems as though the one thing I want most in life keeps eluding me... and then I feel ungrateful that I keep grieving over what clearly will never be... and I lose sight of the many wonderful blessings in my life right now. No, my life is not at all what I had imagined 20 years ago it would be... and yet the wonderful thing is... my life is not at all what I imagined 20 years ago it would be... there are many things in my life that I never thought I would be blessed to have and experience. And yes, there are some things I will always quietly grieve that I have lost or never will have. I think this is ultimately the nature of life... it’s full of mixed blessings and it’s not easy. Hopefully you find some peace... and keep an open mind and an open heart. ❤️
