You get overwhelmed. You get crabby. You see nothing in the big picture to relieve the gloom in your future.
You need to take a step back. You need to look at the present. You need to look at the little picture.
Specifically, a picture of little kids going back to school.
Ponder their adorable little faces. Seeing these children brightens the future oh so much.
Your heart while not quite soaring like a hawk, flits here and there like a butterfly.
You are no longer in your future. You are in a happy now.
