I think I’m getting it.

Getting what? You ask.

Little moments come to me. These ones aren't blaring in the background like some are. They aren't the forehead slap moments either. But these little soft moments calmly and quietly speak to me.

Today the words were "the key is to stop wishing this moment was anything more than it is. Stop trying to be ok. Stop trying to figure out how to be ok. And just be ok. Be ok with whatever this moment is presenting to you. Even if it is not a pleasant feeling moment. Just be ok. Because life will always have unpleasant feeling moments. But to be ok with that. That is the key"

I'm sitting in my new favourite chair. The warmth from the sun is still lingering in the air. A gentle breeze swirls along with it. The light shines through the leaves of my maple tree. Trembling aspens in my neighbours yard clap their leaves like it's an audience. It's like a standing ovation for life.

In this moment. I. Am.

I am...not as healthy as I wish to be.

I am...always dealing with my mental monkey brain.

I am...working through physical changes that come with my aging body.

I am...tired. Quite a bit.

I am...far away from some of my best friends.

I am...in constant struggle with my self esteem.

I am...ok.

I. Am. Ok.

😌

Have a great evening everyone. Be ok 🫶🏻
