Impatience is key.

Lately I've been noticing how impatient I am for everything. I am not satisfied with the here and now, all I can think about it how much better things will be once this happens, or how happy i will be once that one thing happens.
Like I am constantly thinking about how much prettier I will be once i get my braces off, which happens in about half a month.
Or how much my style will be cuter once I get the new vans I ordered, which will be here in a month (they're custom so they take a long time)
Or how much happier I'll be once I get my Iphone, which will come in 5 days (I've been checking the mail for it every single day since I ordered it.)
Or how much cooler of a life I'll have once I move, which will happen in a little under a month.
Or how much cuter I'll be when my hair grows out, which will happen God knows when,
Or how much prettier I'd be if I was a little skinnier, which will happen only when i consistently run each day (that's not happening.)

I am sick and tired of all this wishful thinking that has never gotten me anywhere. I do think all these statements are true, but I mean I can't just sit and wait for this to all happen, it will all come in good time. Meanwhile I need to focus on what I can do to make things improve sooner, or just plain focus on things that are in my control. Instead of thinking of things that need to improve, I'm going to list some things that have recently improved.
I have gotten into one of my "good cycles" of my depression, I've been happy for an entire week which is a pretty big deal to me.
I've tackled most of my school stuff, just a few more finals to study for and take, and all that will be off my back.
I've packed half my room for the move, packing always takes me a long time so I'd thought I'd get a head start.
That's really all I can think of now, but I'm sure there's more. Anyways, today's lesson is Serenity.



God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.
