The Future

I have finally reached my future. My future is now my present. This is what the future looks like to me, from here:

1. I am happy.
2. I have achieved my first Big Lifetime Goal.
3. I feel successful and worthwhile.
4. I am looking forward to starting on the next Big Lifetime Goal.
5. I am a little scared of how taking the next step will change my life.
6. I have found a tribe, on-line and in person, of people like me.
7. I feel like I finally made it into the "in crowd."
8. I am motivated.
9. I feel good about myself.
10. I am confident.

I never thought I'd get here. But here I am. I never knew the future would look like this--I knew the vague shape, but now I can see all the details. This is the best present I have ever had. I hope the next future I reach is even better.
