Dia Frampton Instagram – In the 1800’s, you were expected to live to 35. Maybe 40 if you’re lucky. I’m turning 35 this year. And I’m still… waiting for my life to start. But what does that mean? I realized recently, that I’m not allowing myself to be happy now. When I have ____ amount of money, then I can start a family. When I’ve accomplished ____, then I’ll have enough time to nurture and commit to a deep and loving relationship. Once I date ____ many people, then I’ll have enough experience and knowledge to pick a great partner. Once I book this movie, or get this song to a certain level, or do another tour with my band… then I’ll feel successful enough to slow down and go backpacking through Europe. I’m preparing for some… great life, instead of living that great life now. And it’s exhausting. Today, I opened my journal, and wrote down what a happy life looks like. What I’m doing. Where I am. Who I’m with. Even what I’m eating, wearing, seeing, smelling, touching. Start there. Maybe you’re closer than you think. Let your life start now. ❤️❤️❤️
