Someday and Today

Someday, I will have children.  Today, I will treat my cat as if he is a child.  It's good practice.

Someday, I will have a hobby farm and grow all of our food.  Today I will nurture 3 aloe plants and help my friends with their gardens.

Someday, we will have enough space to store our stuff.  Today, I will try to pare our stuff down so that it fits our space.

Someday, I will proudly be Kristen Lehnig.  Today, I'm trying to plan for that day, and get used to the sound of a new name.

Someday, the events of the here and now will be a memory of hard work to get to a better place.  Today, that hard work seems never ending.

Someday, I will change the world.  Today, I will work towards changing myself.

  1. Amen on the perspective sister-friend. Especially with the "today that hard work seems never ending." So hard to remember that it will get easier and we will look back and be perplexed how we even accomplished all this craziness in the first place. Proud of you! :)
