You Are Where You Are Supposed To Be

So many times in our lives, we question whether we are where we are supposed to be. This usually comes up when we are feeling frustrated because our life is not going the way we planned it. We try to control the direction that our life is going, but sometimes nothing goes the way we anticipate. If we always feel as if things could be better or that we are missing something, then our life will never be enough. We will go through each day feeling as if we are lacking something. The universe has a plan that is beyond what we can forsee. It is with trust and faith that we understand that all we experience in our past, present, and future is part of the bigger picture. Let go of the control and live life to the fullest, for we are all where we are supposed to be. Today, appreciate your circumstances. You are blessed to be in a position to balance your mind, body, and spirit. Live in the moment and be joyful for you are always where you need to be.
How far will you go for the best banana bread on the island...
 
 
(Actually, we went around the island to get the bread near Kahakuloa. After we past a few landslides, pot holes the size of half the road, and a dozen water falls, we finally found our pot of gold. You never know if they'll be open because they don't have regular hours or a phone. But we were lucky and were greeted with a friendly smile and warm, moist banana bread. Of course, we ate half a loaf right there. Life is as simple as you make it. I intend to continue simplifying mine. Q - the next time you come, we'll take you there.)
