My lil Sunday reflection. ✨
In society we are always looking for the next thing to provide us with happiness. Who hears or says ‘I will be happy when I have a new job’ or ‘Once I have a partner I will be happy’ while these things may bring you happiness when you achieve them, the problem we have is we’re always looking for something to fill the gap in our life’s to make us happy, we are conditioned to always want to improve ourselves (which is a great thing in many ways).
The present moment is what you have right now and when you forget about all your goals, dreams, stresses and expectations and listen to the sounds outside, how the trees blow in the wind, your partner laughing, how your favourite song makes you feel, the small things you quickly realise how just being and finding the pleasure in the smallest things bring you joy.
Try and be more present and enjoy the smallest moments in your life as well as the big, everyone’s success is different and if you are just showing up for yourself everyday, celebrate that. 💖
