Time for a real moment: So today I was sitting in my office while planning out a healthy recipe Im planning. At the same time, I was eating a quick healthy meal I had put together for a snack. I found myself stopping in between periods of typing to reflect on the amazing flavors going on in mouth. Nothing abnormal here. Fast forward to when I finally finished the bowl of food... I was staring at my laptop screen in the middle of writing cooking instructions when my eyes suddenly started getting welled up with tears. I took a moment to think about what this was happening. By the time I realized what it was and had completed the thought in my head, I was seriously crying...like tears running down my face. But what happened? Ive felt for so long like I was doing things in life because they were what was expected of me. I dunno about you guys, but this can make for a pretty unfulfilling existence. I guess I felt trapped for a long time and now I had this new existence where I work from home and I can choose to occupy myself however I want. THATS SCARY AND EXCITING AT THE SAME TIME! So Ive spent the last couple months experimenting with my cooking. Ive been figuring out what healthy ingredients work best together to produce the types of flavors that would make the most unhealthy eaters change sides instantly. Its been a frustrating period...constantly second guessing my cooking gut and convincing myself to become a beginner again. I cried today because I finally realized that cooking healthy foods is where my interest lays...and sharing all of my recipes and fitness advice with others is the passion that drives it. I guess what really made me snap was the realization that without knowing it, my dream was perfectly aligned to become my reality. It was a beautiful moment of clarity...just wanted to share that with you all.
