I may not have gone where I intended to go,
but I think I have ended up where I intended to be.

Most of us spend our days in a frenzy, running from here to there, stressed beyond our limits and not sure what happened to us by the end of the day. We drop, literally, when we get home and wake up to do the same thing the very next day. Is this really being productive? Are we really truly learning from operating this way? If we are not appreciating and enjoying our days, why are we continuing to do the same thing over and over? For some reason we feel the busy we are, the more important we must be. The more important we are, then life will surely reward us, right? Well, not necessarily! By being too busy, we don't hear the whispers and lessons we are meant to learn. We miss the laughter and love that is coming our way. We ignore the beauty outside and the warmth of a smile as people pass us by. We don't spend enough time just moseying along. You can still accomplish your goals but it's your perspective and approach that drastically need to change. When we invite the universe in and let it guide us throughout our day, amazing opportunities open up. Peace and serenity flow through us and we are present in each and every moment so that we don't miss a thing! Shift your approach, relax into life, let go of the tight control (that you really don't have anyway) and try just moseying along!
