Question: is it better to stick by what you want when you've pretty much sacrificed your entire view of how you've envisioned things, or is it better to just continue to roll with things as though your previous plans had never existed? I know which is more reasonable, but which is better? To find a new plan, or to hold onto that last glimmer of hope that some part of your original dream might still remain in tact? Sure it's easy to just stand by and let life slowly begin to pass over your big dreams whilst you're still trying to get on your feet. And that's necessary sometimes. But forgetting about what makes you feel alive? Those moments where you just stand back and take absolutely everything in and feel just so amazingly blessed? Those moments shouldn't give way to more practical ones. Many things about our life are practical: money, vehicles, food, living spaces. But so many things about our lives have the potential to be recognized as truly amazing, a fact that we so rarely stop to take advantage of. I'm not talking about "rising to the occasion", so much as I'm insisting that you not give up on what you want because it seems so far out of reach. And most certainly not because it's currently inconvenient. Life is a miracle, treat it like one. Appreciate it like one. LIVE it like one.
Love,
Alice.
