I just got home from celebrating the 15th anniversary of my wedding. The actual anniversary is next week (Aug. 10th) but Kristi and I went to Sedona, AZ to celebrate the last couple of days. We went to a movie, ate at new restaurants, took and off-road Jeep tour, sat around the hotel room, and walked around Sedona. It was a great time away with the woman I've dedicated to live the rest of my life with.
One of things we kept saying to each other was, "wow- 15 years went fast". We also talked about the next 15 years. I am hoping those won't go as fast, but I have a strange feeling that they may go even quicker.
It was a great reminder to me of how fast life really moves. I realized how much I still have left to do. There are places I want to go with Kristi, memories I want to make, kids to raise, and dreams to fulfill. Those things will only happen with deliberate action- something I forget that. I often fall into the trap that hoping for something is the same as making it happen. I judge myself by my intention to save money for a 20th anniversary trip, not by the actual amount saved so that a killer 20th anniversary trip becomes a reality.
What areas of your life do you judge on your intentions and not necessarily on your actions?
