All We Have To Decide

“All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

J.R.R. Tolkien, The Felllowship Of The Rings

Sometimes it feels like I’m wishing my life away by always looking forward to the weekend, to the end of the workday, to the vacation or day trip. And then I remember that having something to look forward to is an important key to happiness. And then I remember that looking forward to something we enjoy is not the same as wishing away what we have right now. 

I like my job and don’t mind my work day. I like doing chores at home when time allows. I even like running errands that others don’t enjoy, including grocery shopping. For the most part, I’m satisfied about everywhere I am. 

So, I guess what I have decided to do with my time is just make the best of it. 

It’s Saturday, friends. Make the best of it.
