Are You Rushing?
by Melissa King
April 5, 2005

Do you remember being a kid?  Life was great, but you couldn't wait to be an adult!  Then, once you became an adult you recognized the great pros of being a kid.

A client of mine who is 40 made a joke the other day that has been making me laugh ever since.  People keep telling her that life gets better as you get older and she keeps waiting for that to happen.  She says, "it's been downhill ever since I was 5!"

This client is actually one of my happiest clients, but she was referring to how easy and amazing it was to be 5 and growing up comes with responsibility and work.

Even in my early 20's I felt the need to rush to the next stage of life, and as 30 isn't too far around the corner I think I'm beginning to finally learn my lesson and see a pattern. 

Life is really amazing...now!  With all of my goals and dreams for the future there are so many beautiful parts of life that are happening in this very moment.

This is just a short reminder to you that there is a season for today and there is a season for tomorrow.  Don't get to tomorrow and have to look back today and wish that you would have cherished it more. 

Soak it all up and enjoy the journey!
