Just Enjoying The Simple Things

Just Enjoying The Simple Things

So if you know me or follow me you know I go home a lot. Home will always be upstate New York. Recently I got to go home and I got to go upstate and be with my friends and family. For me going home means being with nature. Hanging out with family and friends, cookouts, hiking, and nights by the fire pit. That weekend was July 4th and we had a large BBQ at my friend's home. Afterwards, we all sat in the backyard and watched the fireworks. 

As I sat in my favorite hanging chair, wrapped up with a blanket because in the mountains it had become chilly out, I looked around at my friends and thought to myself, I am so content. I am happy with my life and where I am right now. All the anxiety of the world at that moment was gone. I was grateful to be in the moment, that moment. 

I am big on living in the moment. We have so much around us to pull us at the moment that we forget to just be present. We forgot to enjoy the moment. The simple things, not the likes, or all of the fanfare just a simple night around the fire, drinking a beer, and enjoying life. I miss the simple things in life. I miss no phones, no social media, and a simpler time. I miss being present in the moment instead of trying to record it. 

My one dream is to one day have a cabin in the mountains, to live a simpler life away from the craziness of this world. I want to pick my own veggies and feed the chickens. I no longer want to keep up with the Joneses like I did when I was growing up poor. All I thought of then was the rich life, the life I didn't have. But after getting all I thought I wanted, it wasn't all it was cracked up to be. I was miserable in my life. Yes, we had money and toys and fancy vacations but I cried myself to sleep every single night. I hated my life.

I guess we always want what we can't have. Like dreaming of becoming famous only to lose your privacy. The grass is not always greener on the other side. All these “influencers” who show you their “perfect” lives when they can't pay their bills or are afraid their facade will one day be found out. 

So today my friends remember to be in the moment. To enjoy every single second. Be present, be grateful, and live your life large. We are not guaranteed another day, so every day we wake up we should be thankful and make the best of it. We all need to just enjoy the simple things in life.
