yesterday's one day
I have never been the most focused in school
(I’m working on it) and yesterday was no different. I was sitting in my English class and slowly became zoned out, so I began writing down all of my thoughts. Here is where my mind was while my professor rambled on about the correlation between the arts:
“I continue to talk about the future. When I will get married and the kind of dress that will accompany me down the aisle. I pick out the names of my fictional unborn children I dream of having one day. I think about the books I want to write and all the talks I want to give. ‘One day’ is always ringing in the back of my head. But then it hit me, today is yesterday’s ‘one day’.
The Lord has put me in places now that were distant dreams to me a few years ago.
So, I am done waiting for the ‘one day’ and I’m choosing to enjoy today. There is a time for weddings, kids, books in the future but I am in a special season right now. Maybe it’s not glamorous, heck maybe it’s really hard, but I will never get to be in this specific season again once I exit it. So, I will embrace the now which will prepare me for my future. I won’t waste today on the dream of ‘someday’. I will seek beauty in the mundane and slow down enough each day to praise Jesus for how far He has brought me.
