I have plenty of time

Yesterday morning I woke up early, feeling anxious about all the things I needed to do, not just that day, but in general.  I frequently feel as if there is a never ending to-do list in my head, and I will never be enough until it is completed.

Imagine my joy and surprise to sit down at my computer and find the above affirmation for the day: "I have plenty of time."  The timing of the gift of this affirmation was perfect.  It reminded me of a couple of beliefs of mine.  First, the universe, or spirit, is always present with me.  I got just the message I needed in the moment.  Secondly, the content of the affirmation reminded me that life is not a race to see who can complete the most tasks in a given time period (i.e. their life).  It is about being in the moment, learning and growing.  And this is one of the lessons I evidently need to learn again and again!

Finding this affirmation yesterday morning helped me take a deep breath and know deep inside that it will be okay - I will be okay - even if none of the things on that list gets done.
