Appreciating What You Have!
I spent yesterday appreciating what I have. I do have a cold and a lot of stress from needing to take a nap each day due to the cold. Normally, I get a lot done in the afternoons, but teaching is always the first priority and I won’t short change my students by doing it tired.
Well, I really stayed in the moment yesterday and yes there was the usual drama. Dressing room chat. Toys all over. General disarray. I still stayed in attention to the people around me. Stepped outside myself to reach them. Hug them physically and mentally. I love my classes and clients so much. Then the gorgeous husband stands at the door at the end of my day to ask the Zumba ladies to sign in. How proud I felt to know this smiling, affable man was my husband.
So at the end of the day, I had a conversation with a former friend. I was willing to go there because it had been a great day overall. He was his usual self. He’s always been a little self centered. He reminded me again that where I am is exactly right. No, it’s not perfect. I have much still to do, but looking back, I like forward a lot better.
Appreciate what you have. Just take a moment and stop striving. To quote my dear George Strait, we are not here for a long time, we are here for a good time. Enjoy your day.
