Some mornings as I quietly pad around my kitchen and brew my coffee,
I look around my house and think,
"How did I get here?
This is SO much better than I could have ever imagined."
Some days I want to go back to 15 year old Stacy and say:
"Your life will be better than you could ever imagine in 17 years!
Don't take yourself so seriously,
breathe a bit more
and forget the haters."
But I doubt I would listen to myself.
And would I be here if I hadn't been so uptight?
and not been scarred by those haters?
Maybe all that crazy worrying of 15 year old Stacy
got me to the Zen place of 32 year old Stacy.
I know people have said that everything works together for good
... But it really does.
And as someone looking back at their life right now,
I see that it actually works out BETTER than good.
It works out to amazingness!
So hold on 15 year old Stacy!
You are doing just fine
and life just gets better and better
Than you can even imagine!
I wonder what 70 year old Stacy would say about that?
