What happens after?

We go through life working towards one thing after another. There is a string of things that we want and the further we get on the road the more we want. Somewhere on the way we forget to relish what we get and become lost in the pursuit of what we want to get. It is important to take a moment to recognize how far one has come and how wonderful it is to be able to accomplish the small things that lead us to the big things in our lives. Moreover, it is is important to pause and celebrate ones achievement for you never know when you will again get the chance to be grateful for something you have accomplished.

I am taking time today to celebrate things that surprise me. Sometimes, when you get something you have wanted so long and toiled hard for you can be surprised that you actually managed to achieve it. Today, I am surprised at myself.
