As my sweet girls take their naps from playing hard at the pool and the beach I took some time to work a little and then I started to do some reflecting. You know, I am so grateful for the time that I have been given to be where I am with my family on my own time. Time is truly the most precious item on the market, no matter what world you reside, no matter the type of money, transportation or language you use….time is all that matters.

I have found myself worrying about time, stressed or sometimes down right upset about timing issues….but why? Why am I putting myself through so much pain and my family because of how something went down or didn’t. Being present in the moment is key, that is the secret to this time scenario. Just breathe! Look around you, at the smiling faces, squeeze those babies and endure! I am blessed to have found something that gives me more time with my babies so why am I such a mess?

Darn society, you put so much pressure on all of us and we are the creators of who you are! Years and years of programming we have been through and so now we must fight back. Me? I am fighting back by taking time to read about the different philosophies and concepts of success and happiness. It’s funny how backwards we live our lives and how much effort it takes to create successful lives. I am finding myself to be happier and letting go of the little things more and more. Am I perfect, no, but I am doing my best. I am starting with today, and every day after that….making it the best day of the rest of my life! How? I am going to be present! I am going to laugh and smile, hug my girls and my awesome husband each day, one day at a time!

Make your time count and don’t waste it with a scowl or frown! Turn that frown upside down and say yes to the time you have been given!
