Happy Anniversary to Chet Lee and Karli Marie today! ❤ 'Twas a lovely wedding ceremony on this day 11 years ago… and it's such a wonderful life they've built as they've grown together since then!! Could not love the Wilson fam more... happy I get to see them and the Fultons tomorrow!
Fun throwback: Me wearing gloves to avoid splinters while making their wedding signs! =)
One of my recent Launch lessons was on the Arrival Fallacy - that we tend to believe we will be happy when we reach a certain goal, yet we actually feel a lot of purpose, passion, grit, and joy in the pursuit of our goals. It was a well-timed reminder for me as I am nearing the finish line with school. To savor the joys along the way (much like I’m learning to do with my smaller-portion meals). It's fantastic to reach our goals, but we never fully arrive... to stay healthy and vibrant in life, we keep setting more meaningful goals and moving forward with intention! So don't rush yourself, and remember that there's great value in enjoying the journey as you move toward your goals and dreams!!!
Mom and I went to see JoBug and Asher Kenneth this morning... then Dad and Charlene joined us for dinner tonight... yay for seeing my two favorite aunts and spending most of the day with Mom... and yay for seeing JB hamming it up with her first grandson - such an adorable, happy baby!
I was debating what to title this post and then heard Derice from Cool Runnings saying, "Cool Runnings means: Peace be the Journey" and all his teammates toasting that idea. My mind holds such a plethora of movie/TV quotes. lol Anyway, there are days when it's overwhelming and scary, but I'm so grateful to be living with heart and purpose! Gracious, I spent so many years longing for this, and it really is a gift that I value and don't want to rush through or fail to notice!! I hope you are focusing on a goal that feels meaningful to you in this season, and I hope you know God is with you and for you as you move forward in faith, directing your steps and renewing your joy and hope all along the way!
Happy Saturday.
Peace be the journey! =)
❤
