A Little Reminder to Myself

I have two beautiful healthy children. I have a wonderful husband. I have a warm home. I have a wonderful support system. I have people who love me. I have love for others. I have more than a lot of people do. I have all that I need and more.

I just need to give myself a reminder of all of the blessings I have in my life. Lately, I've just been feeling as though everyone else around me is going on and doing bigger and better things and I am just at a standstill in life. I need to remember that the sacrifices in my life that I have made are minimal compared to the benefits those sacrifices have brought. I need to remember that I am young and have a lot of life left to obtain my desires. I need to remember that at this point in life, we are doing the best we can and that is all we can do. I need to remember that I need to celebrate the positive things happening in other people's lives. I need to remember to be a little less self-centered. I need to remember that I'm human and am not perfect. I need to remember that love is greater than any material possession could ever bring.
