evaluating this season of my life

Spring is here! I used to have sore lips and breakouts once the weather transitions from winter to spring. The same happened this year. Except, I did not have breakouts!

Some things change, yet others don’t. Have you changed?
I have ruminated on the idea of changing for the last couple of days. The possibility that I don’t have the same zest for life I used to. The idea that I am not as interesting as I thought I once was. The notion that adulthood has gotten the better of me. The fact that I may be losing out on opportunities and experiences. Dealing with and making adult decisions has forced me to view the world with a different lens.

Is this so bad? Not really I guess. Things have changed but some things are still the same. I think the more important questions should be… Do I know myself? Am I kind to those around me? Is joy and not losing my joy a priority? Am I living in contentment? Do I laugh? Do I introspect? Am I having great experiences? Am I fulfilling my purpose and being a blessing?
These are the more beneficial questions I am learning to steer my mind towards.
As long as I can answer in the affirmative to the more pertinent questions listed above, I can sit back and relax. I can enjoy this time in my life.
Cheers to a great summer!
