The "Somday" Miracle

The "Someday" Miracle
How do you complete this sentence? Someday, when____________, I'll _______________.
Someday, when I win the lottery, I'm going to travel to exotic places. Someday, when my children are grown, I'm going to go back to college and finish my degree. Someday, when I retire, I'm going to slow down and relax. Someday, when I'm thin, I'll love my body and buy myself beautiful clothes. Someday, when I lose 50 pounds, I am going to find my soul mate and then I will be loved. Someday . . .
We often tie our happiness onto the kite string of "Someday." Someday, a miracle will occur and all our dreams will come true. The trouble is that Someday doesn't exist. There is only Today. And a string of todays lived with no intention will only result in a tomorrow that looks nothing like your dream.
There is only one miracle that has to occur. That miracle is when you come to realize that you can have what you want in life now. Your unique purpose in life is only expressed when you are willing to acknowledge and honor your dreams. The barriers that you believe are standing in your way are illusions. There are many people who travel to exotic places with very little money. There are plenty of working parents going back to college. There are busy top executives who understand that being able to slow down and relax increases their productivity. There are people of all shapes and sizes who love themselves unconditionally.
Look back at the statement you completed above. What are your dreams and what are you waiting for? What is one thing you can do in the next week that will take you one step closer to realizing your dream? Check out volunteer opportunities in Indonesia. Send for a college catalogue. Take a meditation class. Write a letter to your body thanking it for all it does for you. Don't let your dreams become your regrets.
