Satisfaction

Life isn't about how much money you make, the small setbacks, the things you own, the things that start to own you... it's about you. The person you are and the person whom you strive to become. Everyday we do things and we decide not to do things, we think things and say things and hold other things back.. all of these unimportant daily occurrences shape us. We get so accustomed to our lives, the everyday... everything starts to blur together and each day becomes less and less memorable. I've been struggling to find a way to change this. To make everyday count. To wake up with a smile on my face and realize that the small things don't matter. The everyday, the routines, my acquaintances, my dear friends, the hours, the minutes, the seconds that slip through the cracks are what are most important and I have the power to make them meaningful. To end each day and wonder how the next day could possibly be even better. To have a positive outlook on life and make everyday one for the books. To not only be satisfied, but to be fulfilled.
