There was a time when I imagined being a doctor. A veterinarian. A lawyer. Working at a fashion brand. What we imagined once, isn’t always where we end up. And truthfully that can sometimes be for the best.

Instead of thinking of what “could have been” what about what “can be now” ? Did you ever imagine…

• You would be in this spot today
• You would make it as far as you have
• You would have the memories you created
• You would create a life that others wished for
• You would take time for yourself each day
• You would notice the little things that make each day better
• You would take time for your health
• You would stop listening to what others said about you
• You would stop caring if your life looks different than what others have
• You would appreciate living more simply at times
• You would stop worrying about the social feed narrative
• You would care less about what others do with their time
• You would love that the people in your life that matter, take the time for you, as you do for them
• You would breathe
• You would…[fill in you blank]

It’s not easy to be mindful of these things each day. Or each week. But it’s possible, one step at a time. I know I’m still trying too, and that’s all that matters.

Until next time #radiatedaily
