The Lessons We Learn

I have found that trials are often the exact moments we need to take notice of reality.  Life is busy, life is loud, life is chaotic and we get swept up in the whirlwind forgetting where ground actually is.  And as much pain as we feel during the squeezing and compressing times, we can be sure that we will reap the reward of the invaluable end result.  

In the meantime I will appreciate laughter.

I will find the joy in messes.

I will indulge in my many guilty pleasures.

And I will slow down enough to truly experience the times I do have with those I hold dear.

We're given this one life to live, and it is up to us to ensure we actually take the time to live it.
