What Are You Waiting For?

What are you waiting for - Featured Image

What are you waiting for

Are you waiting for your life to “kick in?” After the move, after you graduate, after the kids are out of school, after your credit cards are paid off . . . Thing is, no one ever reaches “after.” After is like a rainbow. Run toward it all you want, but you’ll never arrive.

Your life is happening now, and only now. You don’t need to wait for permission. Even if you only have on one shoe and the kids have the flu and your dog just peed on your favorite rug–this is your life. Live accordingly.
