“There are only two ways to live your life: as though nothing is a miracle, or as though everything is a miracle.” -Albert Einstein
There was a time when I would always be looking toward the next big thing and get really depressed when something I was working up to was “over”. The holidays this year were different. You see I view every day differently now. I don’t look for the big moments of joy, I make the little moments throughout my life. I find the joy in the mundane because the mundane fills far more of my life than the big “memory worthy” moments. The mundane is where life truly happens. I don’t need to sit and wait for joy to come with the next vacation, holiday, weekend etc. instead I choose to live in joy and gratitude for as many moments I can. It’s not always easy but it’s worth the effort.
My “Project You 2.0: a deep dive into loving yourself” workshop will help us dive into the work that needs to be done to look for the joy in the small moments, to appreciate the life we have and to live in gratitude. I’m going to take little tidbits from each of the courses and workshops I have done over the last few years and help others see that joy does not need to be elusive or fleeting. We don’t need the next big thing! It’s here with us already. Stay tuned for updates on this quarterly project.
