Journeys

So there's this quote out there. "Enjoy the journey".  I'm generally not an enjoy the journey type.  I just want to be there.  I don't want the road trip.  I just want the destination.  I've always been this way.  And it is something I am deliberately trying to be more aware of.

Trying to enjoy more.  Being present.  Not thinking too far ahead.  Not saying "when a b or c happens, then everything will be better".

My kids are still little.  And there are lists and lists and lists of things I could get done if they were a little older.   But I'm discovering that lists are overrated.  And little kids are a blast.  Tiring and exhausting, but nonetheless, so. much. fun.

So for today. Right now. I will focus on enjoying the daily journey. For being present in this day.  And not be so focused on any one destination.

Our days are numbered.  Sometimes the journey is all we'll get.  Maybe the destination was never the purpose in the first place.
