There You Are

I have been thinking a lot about the saying, "No matter where you go, there you are" lately. I know several people that all they have to say about anything is negative, and they think that they will be happier if the "just" did this or that, whether it is their pining to move from where they currently live or changing jobs. I used to have that same perspective, but that changed.

What changed my perspective is experiencing two major floods that were less than one year apart. With experiencing such life altering events can either change your outlook on life or it can break you. I chose take the more positive route. I have extreme gratitude life and appreciate where I am at at this moment. Yes, I want to grow further personally, but I am not disappointed or critical of where I am now.

I feel at peace with my where I am right now, but it took a long way to get here. I don't want to go back to how I looked at the world before, because I personally found it to cause needless tension.
