Waiting to go visit one of my most favorite people in the whole world.
For five days.
I finished packing two hours ago.
Because, I'm the queen.
Is this arrogant? Probably.
Is it true? Absolutely.
I am the best packer I know.
Not in the world mind you, because that would be pretentious on a whole different level.
But still, I'm pretty awesome at this whole packing thing.
And it's not that I'm OCD (although that's been said), it's just that I don't like a lot of clutter.
Or a lot of things to be responsible for.
I just want to enjoy where I'm headed and who I'm heading to.
And as I am settled in at the gate, waiting to board, I looked down at my backpack and duffel bag and smiled.
I've been dwelling a lot on how to simplify my life.
But, I've forgotten to acknowledge the areas in which I'm already practicing it or have already established it.
Like today, when I went to therapy for the first time ever.
I walked away realizing I am much lighter than I thought I was.
Still have more to unpack, but I'm getting there.
So, as I look down at my bag, I'm filled with a strong sense of self acceptance.
Life isn't perfect, but I'm doing better than I think and making more progress than I give credit for.
Join me in giving yourself an air guitar jam fest. Because you are getting there.
We all are.
