Realize...

Something about yesterday's entry left me feeling...odd.  I don't know what it was, but I laid in bed for what felt like forever just feeling, off.  And then I realized there was something I had written the other day that was sitting on my shoulders trying to say something:

"My paradise would include all my friends who smile.  All the people who I love and laugh with.  All the family that support me and take the tears away from my eyes.  All the apples and honeydew I can handle.  Chocolate of course.  Birds (all sizes and colors).  Lots of sun.  Love.  Joy.  And happiness."


So, what erupted from this paragraph?


I wrote this wishing for this to be my paradise...but who says I don't have this already?  That I'm not already in paradise, I just refuse to see and accept it?  Because I truly have all these things, all these people, all these feelings...now I just need to embrace them. 


Just something I realized that I wanted to share with you...and how the Insight's are helping.  


Happy Wednesday.


P.S. I've discovered I have bad tired karma...I got another flat today.  3 in less than a month.  Really?

Karma sucks...
But that is so true. We need to learn to appreciate what we have, rather than wishing for other things. So many times.. it's right in front of your face.

I absolutely agree with what Jessica said above. Sometimes we just have to be greatful for what we already have. Sometimes we don't realise it but we live pretty awesome lives already :)
