day 107: be in the moment (part 2)

hello hello hellooooo!!!

so, today was a big day for me: my second degree black belt exam!! (spoiler: I PASSED!!!!!!!!!!)

through the entire day today, i felt like i was going to bawl my eyes out because of how emotional this made me feel. i've worked so so hard to get where i am and seeing my brother do the same makes me truly grateful and happy.

one thing i noticed throughout the day was this: i had a blast. 

i seriously enjoyed every single part of the process because i want to have amazing happy memories from this day. i want to think back on it and be flooded with memories of the immense joy i felt going through such a rewarding process.

last year and the year before, i struggled a LOT with being in the moment. i would be constantly thinking about the end result or what would happen next. now, i'm so proud to say that i am able to enjoy each and every second of the events and things that i go to, which in my opinion, makes it all worth it.

today was nothing short of one of the most memorable days of my life and i could not stop smiling and being silly because i've never felt this way before.

for me, there is nothing better than feeling like you deserve to be where you are and seeing your hard work pay off.

so here's to enjoying and being in the moment!!!

i hope you enjoyed today and i'll catch you on the next one!!

don't wish for it, work for it.
