Linda’s #SoCS prompt, this week:
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “luck.” Use it any way you’d like. Enjoy!
I might be tired, unable to lose weight consistently, stressing over unbought furniture, worrying about the academic year ahead, concerned about what the future holds for my kids, fed up of the mess Hubby Dearest leaves the bathroom in…
But…
Then I realise that I am lucky.
I’m tired but I am busy, with things to do, and people to see, because I have people around me who want to be with me.
I’m unable to lose weight, but that means I have food on the table.
I’m stressing over furniture, but that means I have a roof over my head.
I’m worrying about next year at school, but I have a job.
I worry about the kids futures, but,hey, at least I have my children to worry about.
I get fed up of the mess, but at least I have a loving Hubby whose mess production I wouldn’t live without because I love him, too.
We may not have everything we want, but we should count ourselves as lucky, becayse we have enough.

Attitude and how we look at things are everything. I think it’s completely normal to get frustrated with it all at times.
