Truthfully, I never saw myself "moving forward".

I'm failing at finding a 'new dream'.  

I'm failing at building a 'different future.'

But here I am moving forward.

Day by Day 

Sometimes Minute by Minute

No matter what I'm doing,

Time always moves forward.

 

One day at a time means something different to me today.

Today, it means just being here.

Don't try to build.

Don't try to dream.

Today, let's just enjoy today.

Today Moving Forward is this moment.

 

Doing something that I enjoy

Talking to someone I love

Breathing in the sun & the clouds,

Being grateful for what's in today.

Leaving yesterday where it belongs

Trusting I will find enjoyment in tomorrow,

Moving Forward is living today.

*************************************

I really struggle with 'ending up alone' but it's stifling everything I can do now.  

One day at a time, used to mean surviving the day. I don't want to survive. I want to live. I want to be happy. I was happy before, which means I can be happy again. I tried the new dream. I tried focusing on what I want my future to look like. What I think is working best right now is just being here. 
Right now. In this moment. Today. 
I can't change yesterday. 
Anything can happen tomorrow. 
I don't want to waste anymore time on what I can't do.  I want to go and do what I can do - today!  

Tomorrow might feel different, and I'll feel it - but today I'm moving forward with gratitude of what's in today.

Sending love and hugs to you all.
