First Fun Friday post. Thanks for reading.

In my way, slowly and laboriously, I’m living the life I wanted. Sure, I don’t have all the things. Not even half. But, every single day, I have the opportunity to write and draw and go for walks in the cool of early morning. What a sweet gift. And it’s these moments, these exact moments, I want to appreciate while I have them, because where I am is not where I wish to stay. Life will churn onward and my days will fill with expectations and demands, all things I want. And amid the coming and going, I’ll find myself thinking about what life was like six months ago. And I want to remember feeling content. When I focus on the moment and see life a progression of linked-moments, I know I’m on pace.

I’m glad I decided to dedicate a post per week to gratitude, toward what’s good in my life. It’s a privilege to be able to do this. And by this, I mean write about the bright moments. First Fun Friday post, ya’ll. Thanks for reading.
