Day 8 - Don't Wish Away Today

Today, I tried to really focus on just today and not better days ahead. Tomorrow isn't promised, and I would hate for tonight to be my last and I wasted it wishing for all of my dreams to come true tomorrow.

Earlier, we were talking to some people in our small group about houses, and I knew that my mind could easily go to obsessing over the details of the whens, the wheres, and the hows. This time, however, I recognized that while we can still prepare our finances for a house in a future, my heart will remain content if I just focus on caring and being grateful for our little apartment. 

We just got home from the fair, and while I made a few comments about how I can't to be able to take my future baby Kings so they could enjoy all of the rides and games, I made an effort to soak in this alone time with my man, and enjoy being able to let loose and have fun with each other. 

Sure, there is nothing wrong with being excited for the future and expecting good days ahead, but if you're always searching for bigger and better, you miss out on the current good you've most likely prayed for in the past.
