I really appreciate this post. It wasn’t too long ago when I was chasing all of the things in life I thought I was supposed to. Not because it’s what I truly wanted but because it seemed everyone around me was doing the same thing; it seemed the right thing to do. Since then my priorities have shifted and the intrinsic balance I’ve been able to achieve is priceless. I let go of material desires to count my daily blessings and have realized how truly happy I am. My life may look slightly different from most people my age, my goals may seem strange to some but I can honestly appreciate every moment of everyday for exactly what it is and I’m at peace. To me, peace, is the epitome of what success should be in today’s world. Thanks for sharing!
