Last night, I found myself staring at the dark sky through our small bedroom window. For some reason, I could not sleep despite the late hour. I found myself thinking about how lately, I have been yearning for something more.
I want to have a bigger home.
I wish my husband would act more like his age.
I wish that the atmosphere at work was less complicated.
I want to have more trips.
I could go on and on.
Yet as I was lying there thinking about these things, I also realized that I already have a lot and instead of wanting more, maybe I should focus on what I have. Perhaps that would make me feel better.
I have a comfortable home filled with things that I need.
I have a husband who loves me and who tries his best to live up to my expectations.
I have a job that allows me to have a reasonably good lifestyle and still fulfill my responsibilities.
I get to have vacations at least twice a year.
I guess it really is just a matter of perspective, isn't it?
