I’m here.

Ever have one of those moments?

You have been headed towards a goal, some huge destination and you have been so busy trying to get there that you never look up until you bang into the sign that says “YOU ARE HERE”.

I had that moment the other night. I have been looking forward to this specific event in my life to take place but I was so busy jumping through hurdles and climbing through hoops of fire to get there that I was so distracted that I almost lost the pleasure of basking in it when it happened. Ok so I didn’t bask in it (when it happened) because I was so pissed off about those fire hoops and hurdles that fat girls have a hard time conquering.

A few nights after said event occurred it hit me like a ton of bricks and I said “Wow Deborah, I’m here.”

Life happens and sometimes it takes up so much of our time and day that we forget to stop and enjoy our accomplishments.

Stop what you are doing and look around you, where are you? I bet 9 out of 10 times you are close to the destination you set out to be a year ago or even a month ago. It’s always seems easier to notice what we have not done or accomplished then it is to stop and look around at what we have. I can write a novel about all of the things I think are wrong with me but would have a really big problem telling you the things I think are great about me.

Ok so I am veering off from my point.

Have you stopped to look at you map and appreciate how far you have gone and how close you are to your destination?
