I am a girl who constantly seeks change.
First things first, I am not talking about change in the context of personal growth.
So, spoiler-alert, none of us have it all together.

Is it the excitement of something new?
(Hint: these are all rhetorical questions).
I feel that, as Millennials, weve gotten this bad rap for being obsessed with newness.
I, too, chase the same glimmer of hope-filled light.
We dont want to settle for a life where we arent our best and we arent getting our best.
But what has this mindset done to us mentally and emotionally?
Have we lost appreciation for simplicity?
Have we developed a sort of ADHD for life?
Are we falling victim to over-the-top expectations of how life should look?
And if so, where are we wrong?
I mean, youve heard the common saying, If you dont like something, change it.
But personally, I am starting to get more and more unhappy with whats right in front of me.
If somethings going wrong in my life, I usually say, Okay, whats going to change?
Is it my job, new friends, another trip?
Yet seldom is the answer is me.
Yes, change is good when it is used as a tool for growth and self-discovery.
Yes, I want the life I want, but I also want happiness in simplicity.
The happiness in living fully where I am right in this moment.
Soaking up the good, the bad and yet to be discovered parts.
Because I have a feeling that is where the good stuff is found.
You know, things like joy, peace, and happiness.
Yeah, the things dreams are made of.
I hope you find it too.
