The now.

I’ve been thinking a lot about dreams, about goals.

Thinking about the future and what that might hold.

Sometimes when I get embroiled in these thoughts I feel overwhelmed.  The unknown.  What my life may look like in a matter of years.  And somehow that blinds me, at times, to opportunities that come along in the now. 

I am good at the now.  I can hold onto it with thankfulness.

A sense that I am in the right place, surrounded by the right people and doing the right thing.  Thankfulness for the path that has lead me to where I am today, the friendships and people who I hold so dear.  That we get to do life together because that is the best way to do it.

But I want more… I want to hold my hands open.
