I received this email from a dear friend this morning. She could not have picked a more perfect time.
I was having one of those mornings where you lose sight of the moment and your focus expands to the finish line of your tasks at hand.
Thank you for shaking my state of mind and bringing it back to enjoying and cherishing the present moment of the journey.
Enjoy your day, find the love and joy in what you are doing at the moment, take time to breathe for a moment, smile and laugh.
Below is the powerful email that was just sent to me.

Hi Fred,

Life is a funny thing. It’s an ever-going marathon, yet no one knows where his or her finish line is. We just keep running and running, hoping we still have a long way to go. We do whatever we can to prolong the run, but sometimes despite our best efforts, the marathon is cut short. So many of us are only concerned about the distance we are traveling, we lose focus of what’s going on during the run. And this is the important part, so take advantage. Stretch some personal boundaries, work outside of your comfort zone, try something new. There will be bumps along the road, shortcuts, and paths that lead into dead ends. These are all parts of the journey; how you deal with them will determine where you go in life. Remember, we don’t always determine the distance, but we can determine the path.

A fantastic reminder.
