New Perspective

To be completely honest, I'm wiped and it's not even 9:30am.
I work in lists so here's what's going on:
1. School
2. Church
3. Me

I could go on and on, but why complain, nobody wants to read that and I love it everything I've committed to. However, I started seeing myself waiting for the end. 1 month to competition, choreography will be done Friday, November I get to go home!!! Why am I living for the end? I mean, yes there should be an end in sight, but isn't the journey the exciting part?

I had coffee w/ my wonderful friend Jen who is so inspirational and creative. She rocks. Anywho, we decided after coffee I'd help her look for old wood & metal for a set she's building at church. We got in the truck & I asked where to go. I was just driving to get there. She kept looking out the window, finding all this random stuff that would work and I would U-turn to load it in. I found myself slowing down, not driving to get the the 1st destination and just enjoying the ride. By the time we got to the original destination the truck bed was completely full. We had so much fun!!!! As I left Jen, I started thinking what else am I missing out on because I'm too concerned w/ getting all my checks on my check list finished? So, what do I enjoy? It really is the little things in life. I now am going to sip & enjoy my coffee, enjoy teaching my students instead of just worrying if they're obtaining it all, & I'm going to write more. So hopefully I'll be better about updating this! Here's to the journey!!! I love a good road trip :)
