I have. In fact, I find myself having that thought quite a lot lately.
I’ll be so happy when school is out for Christmas Break!
I’ll be so happy when I get my car paid off!
I’ll be so happy when I get into shape!
I’ll be so happy when we can go on a family vacation!
I thought about this as I was reading a friend’s FB post today. She wrote about how she is choosing to find joy in whatever each day may bring. As I thought more about this, I realized that If my current thinking is “I’ll be happy when …”, I am not finding joy in the present.
For 2019, I am choosing to be happy NOW.
So, that is my word for 2019. Now.
In the spirit of "Now", here is Gracen and I walking the Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge today. We were enjoying "now-ness". |
