I had such an amazing night last night. After the stressful Friday I had I expected to just come home and enjoy my couch but my friend surprised me with a trip to see Lauryn Hill in concert. Lauryn. Hill. I was so excited when I accidentally found out we were going to see her lol (she was on the phone and the person said it before she could take them off speaker phone). But being there, in the moment was glorious. I literally don’t think I’ve ever felt complete joy the way I did last night. Lauryn is sooooo talented.
I also met a super cool girl who I believe helped me get in the moment. She told me about her older brother who passed away and how that’s shifted her into really enjoying every moment. She said “I gotta enjoy now because the past don’t matter and the future may never even come. This could be my last day here and I’m seeing Lauryn Hill. I’m happy.” I told her that was so scary to think about but also beautiful. She asked if I was happy right now, I told her yes. She said “that’s all that matters. Right now.” And I zoned into that moment. Nothing else mattered. Such a blissful night.
