Come tickle my ivoriesš I had a call with my financial planner this week and he said something that really landed with me. He used a word I havenāt really heard or used since my church days. The word was: content (as in feeling content:). I feel like Iām a really grateful person, and that being content is a form of gratitude. But for some reason, when he said content, it landed differently and more potently than the word gratitude. Iām a very driven person. I love working. I love accomplishing my goals and surpassing what I thought was possible. In my drivenness, however, itās easy for me to forget to slow down and be⦠content. I want to go further, do more, have more, say more, be more⦠and yet ever since my call with him, Iāve really paid attention to my days and have intentionally celebrated all the good things in my life, both big and small. Itās made me more present, more aware, more intentional, and it feels really good. Thereās more on its way, of course, but for now Iām slowing down to soak up the beauty and goodness along the way.āŗļø What about you? Whatās feels good to you in your life? What do you feel really content with?š„°
