I went on a girls trip recently and drank wine, laid by the pool, laughed, relaxed and did all the things that a girls trip is about. It was amazing.
As I was driving home I had the fleeting thought, 'Damn, I'm Headed back to Reality'. It wasn't a positive thought, which annoyed me. Why would I be bummed about going back to my 'normal' and 'routine' life? I knew instantly that this thought was not my truth.... I have just been trained to have these negative thoughts. Years of seeing these kinds of thoughts posted on social media. Thoughts of being sad when a vacation is over... instead of appreciating the vacation AND appreciating the life we head back to. Thoughts of the Monday Blues... instead of appreciating and loving our work.
Even though I let the thought get to me, I quickly dismissed it because it was not my REALITY. I love every (well mostly) aspect of my life... honestly, I do! I love all of my realities. The reality of work-ing. The reality of mom-ing. The reality of wife-ing. The reality of adult-ing. The reality of vacation-ing. ALL OF IT!
Our reality is NOW... like, whatever we are currently doing. Me writing this post, that is my reality!
What you choose to do is your reality.
