Yesterday i was talking to Lady C about how all of life is a trade off. For every good thing you get there is a price. For example, i’ve lost a lot of weight. This is fabulous. But, now i have like NOTHING to wear. Or, when J works lots of overtime we have money. But, i never see him. When he doesn’t work overtime, he’s here… but we are broke. There is a price for everything.
The older i get the more i see that without the price tag we wouldn’t appreciate what we get as much. While the price sucks, without it maybe we would just go through life never noticing the little things. Like how awesome our man smells, or how beautiful our children’s smiles are, and even the patterns new leaf buds make. These little things are truly what make the moments worth living.
i intend to start savoring my moments more. To truly drink in each little detail with all of my senses. i want to store up for hard times. When times get tight i want to remember the way Brad looked in the sun or how J had smiled or Kami’s genuine delight. i’ll save these up and maybe use them to ward off the boogyman. i can try anyway.
