Enough

NOW THAT I AM OLDER

The list of things I want, has grown smaller with every passing year.

These days, I can pretty much narrow it down to,

good health for us all, 

enough money, 

enough time,

enough fun,

enough adventure,

enough work,

really, just enough. 

Enough. 

That’s really all that I want.

The list of things I don’t want, however, has grown bigger, a whole lot bigger.

At the top of that list comes unnecessary drama.

As I get older, I realise that I can handle pretty much any negativity or adversity life may throw my way.

But I don’t have to.

I don’t have to sign up for it all.

It’s pretty freeing.

In fact, I can cancel my subscription to anyone’s drama, anytime I please.

And I have.

If it costs you your peace, it’s too expensive right?

Spend wisely my friend,

Life is short.
