Life's Little Journey

I'm thinking i'll be happier, once I've done this certain thing.
I have thought about this often, without realizing what it brings.
I have looked only to my future for my happiness.
Letting life slip through my fingers in its fullness.
Will I really feel complete when this task is done?
Or look back and see how I've missed out on so much fun?

Self consumed, not allowing myself to see anything else.
Hurting all of those that I love so much, but mostly myself.
There are so many things around me, that I should be grateful for.
So many positive feelings inside me, that I've chosen to ignore.

All my life I've felt a love inside myself, a love that i should have embraced.
But I had been too blind to look within, as if I was snared in the race.
I'm starting to wake up now, to what my life's supposed to be about.
It's not about my future or my past, it's about living right here in "the now".

Since the day my marriage ended, I knew that I had to find my path.
I knew i had to spend time away from my little girl, and this would be extremely hard.
So I dedicated all of my love for her,
in finding every positive thought that I could gather.
From facebook post's and positive quotes, to expressing my feelings with those that matter.

Along the way I got lost at times in the most darkest of places,
filled with intense hurt and pain.
But It was there that I found this love for myself,
written in my daughter's name.
Seeing, feeling and knowing, this love that we have for each other,
gives me all the strength and inspiration that I need.
To share with the world this secret....,
the law of love and attraction,
I can now use to attract both of our hopes and dreams.
