What If?

Sitting here at the late hour and wondering to myself… What if nothing is missing?

What if the life we’re waiting for has already begun? That might even be true. 

What if wanting more doesn’t mean what I have is not enough?

What if I’m just a work in progress and not someone who is lacking?

What if someone else’s life isn’t evidence that mine is lacking?

And what if happiness doesn’t have to wait for something new to happen?

What if a good conversation, a little song, a quiet morning, a nice meal, or a good cup of coffee would do?

What if that would do?

What if I can just enjoy my life as it is, while still looking forward to the things I want?

Hmm. What if nothing is missing?

Or what if something is missing, but I can still be happy?

Just thinking.
