"Give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with the food that is my portion." Proverbs 30:8
Over the years I've realized how easy it is to want too much. We want more money, we want more time, we want better health, we want better relationships, we want to do better at work. We push it to extremes sometimes in terms of our wants, but we fail to realize our role in achieving those things. We also miss the balance of it all. I've been there myself. I want to spend instead of save. I want to eat fast food more than I want to be healthy. I want to sleep late rather than be productive. That balance is on us. The responsibility of wanting vs needing is on us. We have to make the choices necessary to determine what matters most to us and to avoid those extremes. Life is full of opportunities to balance out our priorities and ourselves. It is filled with moments to give and take, to want too much and expect too little, to be content and to push ourselves, to be firm and to be kind. It is filled with choices that will determine just how blessed we are. Blessed to find the beauty in life that makes us appreciate where we are, but never stop dreaming of where we can be.
Believed in the Unbelievable that is YOU and have a blessed weekend!
