Saturday is my favorite day.
I've worked Monday - Friday for more than two decades now. I am certainly spoiled to having my weekends. They mean the world to me.
Friday night is a happy feeling but waking up on Saturday, no alarm clock and no work for the next day - is the best.
I love what I do for a living but I love like without work more and try to make the most of it. Even if its just staying home and being a homebody.
Times in my life where I have felt like I wasn't enough. When I envied others who seemed to have such a exciting life! Friends. Parties. Travel. You know, excitement.
Recently tho, I have had a realization.
People who I perceive to have the most exciting lives ever actually envy the one that I have. Home. Slow. Simple. How my eyes light up over the silliest and easiest things. Beauty in nature. Old barns. Trees. The sky.
And it shifted my thinking - realizing that.
While I was looking at my life as too quiet, too boring maybe. Too simple. Free time with family or just with myself. Solitude.
Maybe, just maybe that is something to admire for someone who has very little of that in their life.
Just a shift in my thoughts.
If you change your thoughts, you can literally change your life.
