Enjoy today

Why? I have everything I need and far far more than most could ever hope for, so why? Why do I allow myself to be so unsatisfied with where I stand today and instead am permanently fixated on where I want to go, what I want to do and what I want to have.

Too often, as in almost always I miss out on the joy of the moment I am in. Rarely have I reveled in what I have. Even as I write this I think of the things I want. I ahould be enjoying a Sunday morning with my family, really taking in that experience, but instead thoughts of tomorrow and my disdain for it dominate my mind.

I get that complete satisfaction is probably not healthy and we should look to improve ourselves and our position, but shouldn't the purpose of that improvement be central to our thought process, what are we truly trying to accomplish and why?

I don't have those answers, but I would like to.
