Appreciative Mode

Man…

Today I experienced the greatest feeling. As I lounged back on my bed working on my articles I smiled to myself as I thought, “Dang, living with my parents ain’t so bad.”

All I have to do is vacuum the floor once in a while and wash the dishes at night. I don’t cook, I don’t do any hard core cleaning and they always cook, I never have to.

Now for a minute as I experienced this extreme appreciation for where I am right now, a little voice said, “But what about your goals? But what about the things you want to do?”

I just said, “Whatever.”

I’m here right now and all I can do is enjoy it.

My children are fine. I’m a straight A student. I’m doing well, working on improving myself.

I need a haircut or a hair-do but..life is pretty good.

Yep, it is.

I’m alright.
