The ‘what if’s’

You're allowed to enjoy your tea, your partner's voice, the stillness of the room, even when something uncertain hangs in the air. You don't have to wait for everything to be okay to let yourself feel a little peace. You just have to practice remembering that now is where life happens, not in the ‘what ifs.’

That was today’s little pearl of wisdom. It was reminder to myself not to get weighed down in the fear and anxiety of the ‘what ifs’. Because while I am doing that I am wasting the moments that I will one day scold myself for not enjoying more.
