I’m one of those “in the moment” type of people, but not necessarily in that good type of “in the moment” way. I more so mean, one moment I want to do this and the next moment I want to do that. Maybe a better term for this would be lack of contentment, clarity, vision, or figuring out what in the heck I want to do in this life. I think I have it all figured out and then twenty minutes later I’m all “why did I think that was a good idea?! I clearly don’t want to do that…I want to do this!” and then another twenty minutes passes by and I’ve made up my mind that I now want to do both or neither at all. Really, the only thing I am completely ever sure of is what I want to eat for my next meal and all that’s gained me is a lot of calories and empty drive thru bags #guilty.
I guess I’m writing this today not to get an answer [but I mean if you have one, I’m all ears…] but hopefully to relate to some of you who struggle with this too. To know that it’s okay that not everything is cut and dry. That it’s okay we don’t always understand our own thoughts, desires and dreams. That even if we never get to that seemingly impossible point, we are living up the highs, learning from the lows, praying through the confusion, toasting to the accomplishments and laughing through the WTFs. Oh life, you are confusing to me but I sure do love the heck out of you. To whatever is next…
Founder and creator of LIY, Erin turned her dream of a hobby blog into a full-time career which she now runs alongside the LIY team! When not in front of her computer screen [with a La Croix or wine in hand] or in front of a mirror taking mirror selfies, you can find Erin spending time on the water, cuddled up with her two pups and husband most likely watching the latest Shark Tank episode, or getting lost in an easy beach read.
