Its 10.49pm on a Sunday, I’m catching up on
bake off and my tummy is full of Chinese food. Does life get any better?
Being content has always been something that
I’ve struggled with. I’m not sure if it’s because I think there may be
something else out there that could make me so much happier. But the last few
days I’ve been think that maybe there isn’t.
I mean sure, I could have achieved so many other
measures of success... I could have moved out of my parent’s house, I could
have a boyfriend; I could be making endless amounts of money. But striving for
those things makes me forget to appreciate everything that I do have. I am
incredibly lucky and here’s why.
Friendship- I am so lucky to have so many beautiful
friends around me. Of all shapes and sizes, and they love me and that love gets my through so many struggles. There is
always someone at the end of the phone, someone to listen, someone to love me
and that is something that can’t be measured.
Family – Obviously the love I have for my family
is unparalleled, but recently my parents went away for two weeks on a holiday
and I have never missed them so much. I love the jokes that can only be
understood by your family. The way they look after you, the way I’m still my
parent’s baby. I also have an amazing big sister who has given me one of the
greatest gifts of all – a beautiful niece, watching her grow keeps me going on
days that I would like to give up.
Work – I am incredibly lucky to be doing my
dream job, and to have met so many wonderful people through my work. Being up
in the sky every day is unlike anything I had ever imagined, and I’m so
grateful to be able for my office in the sky.
There are so many wonderful things in your life,
and just because someone may have something that you don’t, doesn’t mean you
can’t be just as happy as they are. Everyone has joy in their lives you just
have to remember to see it sometimes.
Lots of love and awkward hugs,
Yours,
