Day 340

Wednesday

You ever have those moments where you suddenly find yourself looking at your present life through past eyes?

This morning, caught up in getting ready for the day, I found myself imagining what Past Me would think of Current Me’s life.

The Me from a year ago would be pretty amazed to see how happy, healthy and balanced Current Me was. How much “easier” things seem to be, the trend of positivity in Current Me’s marriage (even if we still struggle with the usual communication issues), the patience Current Me has with the twins and life in general, the continued success of my freelance business and my efforts at physical health through exercise, food, sleep and meditation.

Sometimes, I lose focus on how far I’ve come, my tendency being to look ahead at where I want to go instead of resting on my laurels.

But this morning, I rested.
