About This Quote

I’m tired of living life wishing I had more time to do the things I want to do. I’m tired of trying to accomplish things that I am not passionate about, but that society expects me to do. Instead, I am ready to appreciate my ordinary day. Instead of trying to find meaning in my ordinary experiences, I am hoping that finding meaning in them will lead me to find meaning in my extraordinary experiences.
