Silly of Me (Alternately titled "Lots of Epiphanies")

How silly of me to think that relationships start in maturity instead of growing and evolving over time.

How silly of me to think that love was going to smack me in the face instead of peeking at me from across the room and inching its way closer and closer.

How silly of me to be so caught up in what I think I should want that I don't see what I've asked for right in front of me.

How silly of me to compare myself to those around me when those around me could care less.

How silly of me to let others' standards for themselves dictate my standards for me instead of forging my own path.

How silly of me to be malcontent in what I don't have, instead of being grateful for what I do.

How silly of me to focus on the trivial when the nonnegotiable is waving its hands in front of me.

How silly of me to doubt God's plan when he's just sitting back waiting on me to get the message.

How silly of me not to be every. single. thing. I am and embrace because those things have made me the woman I am today.

How silly of me to think I know it all when it's so obvious I have no idea.

Lots of epiphanies tonight. Thanks, God. This is SO good.

Sitting back, smiling, and having a glass of wine to savor. Because this? Is just THAT good.
