I’m a mess on some days and others I’m perfectly put together!
I have moments of complete, absolute clarity and moments of major confusion!
One moment I have it all together and the next I’m so undone that I can barely get myself motivated.
Sometimes I cry and wonder what the meaning of life is and the very next day I’m completely grateful for my life.
In all this, what I am beginning to realize is, life is confusing!
Today I shared watermelon with the construction workers outside of my home. I sweat with and cheered on my fellow gym mates during our workout, then had an impromptu dinner with a friend who’s down on her luck.
In all this confusion, I guess I’m still living life~ and that is the true essence of life.
Not all the well thought out, planned out decisions. It’s the living that slips in between the cracks that we barely even notice. That’s the good stuff!
A smile at a stranger, patting someone on the back at the gym. Laughter shared with family. Bumping into an old friend or making small talk on the check out line. All the little bits of living that sneak in between the silence and the confusion, that’s life.
The best we can do is take each day as it comes and bring a little bit of light into the lives of those around us. Chances are, they are just as confused as we are.
We don’t need to figure out the puzzle, we just need to keep playing and enjoy the game.
For there is no one out there, as much as they may seem to have it together, that knows exactly what they are doing all the time. We just have to admit we are doing the best we can, with what we’ve been dealt with, on this planet called earth, that has given us no instructions, on the purpose of life!!
Write back soon, love Annie.
