Dark Chocolate from Lemons

Yesterday I felt both annoyed and frustrated when I realized I paid a six-month lease for a home that I only spent five weeks in, but today I feel blessed about it.

Today I feel because I am reminded that we can manifest the life we want to live and my life is pretty good.

Now don't get me wrong 'Rona-19 is still outside, so things aren't perfect, but things aren't horrible. Not too long ago I remember dreaming of a life where I worked remotely and could spend more time with my loved ones; I've currently been working remotely since March of 2020. While I'm not happy with all the conditions that have brought me to this place, I am happy I am here. Life is a journey and if you've read my earlier post then you know my journey includes: teenage pregnancy, death, bad credit, and divorce.

In those not so great moments, I remember looking at other people's lives and going down the dark path of comparison:

Why doesn't my life look like that?

How can I be a part of that?

Why wasn't I included?

The simple reason is " It wasn't for me" Now simple doesn't always mean easy to accept. But accepting that something is not for me allowed me to focus on what is. When I asked myself why I was unhappy I began to uncover what makes/made me happy. As I uncovered my happiness I found that there were already traces of it in my life. As I focused on the traces was better able to nurture them and watch them grow to be more. so rather have a pity party I'm having a dang she did it party. I turned my lemons into Dark Chocolate( I like dark chocolate more than lemonade) I am happy to have maintained a home in my midwest home in a financially responsible way while spending time with loved ones and work in a career I love.
