UncategorizedEnjoy The Ride July 29, 2011I just need to take a moment today to remind myself to do just that…ENJOY THE RIDE. I was on Pinterest today and of course, as I was scanning quickly, I was rushed. I had the list of things to do in my head and kept telling myself, “You’ve gotta get out the door. You’ve gotta get out the door.” I spend so much time focusing on the To-Do list or being too busy to really enjoy anything. I saw this and it spoke to me: Wow. Did I ever need to see and hear that. I’m always rushed and ready to move onto the next thing. Sometimes, it’s not even a to-do list, but my dreams that keep me from enjoying the present. If you’ve hung around here for very long, you know that I am passionate. I am a dreamer. Which, all in all, is a good thing. It’s what drives me. But, there are the times that those dreams always keep me looking forward instead of looking at where I am. How much of these present moments that we can never get back do I miss by rushing onward to my sky filled with dreams? Today I am deciding to stop and enjoy the present, enjoy the ride. I hope you will do the same. Happy Friday!
