I kept waiting for everything to fall into place before I let myself be happy.
Every time something felt out of my control, I'd try to get control back somewhere else. I kept waiting for everything to settle before I could feel content. But there's always going to be something that doesn't go the way I planned.
I think I've also been tying my worth to how productive I am and what I have to show for myself. Honestly, I want to be a stay-at-home mom. This is the life I want, but I still catch myself feeling guilty because it doesn't bring in an income.
I'm learning that I don't have to have everything figured out to enjoy the life I'm living. I can trust God with what I can't control and be present for what He's already given me. š
