Wow we have been given a gift today. I have been asking for more time to do this and that. And here it is. Now what do I do with that? Be careful what you wish for it may be starring you right in the face. You thought you would be ready for it when it came ~but are you?
Many times I find myself wanting just a little more than what I have. If I had a few extra bucks I could do this. I could go and do that if I had the time. Well we all make choices. Good or bad.
Twenty four extra hours means that you have alot more choices to make. That can be good, that can be bad. Gifts are given often. We just need to view them as such... a gift. What are you going to do with your gift of twenty four?
Pondering...what a great word!

Get It!? Get Me
Do you get me? Do you understand what I am all about? Do you even want to know?
In my journey lately I have been doing a lot of soul searching. Figuring what i am and where i want to be. I have always thought that i put myself out there for all to see. No fakes or phoneys. Then why is it that some don't get me? Do I portray differently to different people? Do I let people in equally?
In talking to a friend, I realize that i don't do that. Test the waters to see if the "me" is safe to show. Trust~that one word that can be taken and held dear or ripped right away in a moment. Something earned. Not too be taken lightly.
Just a thought!

New Goals...resetting oneself
Well I am beginnig to learn that my goals are changing like I am changing. I feel that once a goal is achieved I need to set the bar a bit higher. This weekend I have obtained the 3 mile run and feel like I could go for miles more. What a high! Why wouldn't everyone want to feel this good? Why it take me so long to get here?
I know everyone has to get it into their head what they want and when they want it. I also know that I am going into my season; spring. The time I truely get excited for sun warm and rebirth.
Have you see it? Are you looking for it? Can you smell it? Day light is happening earlier. It is 630 at nite and it is still lite out. That gets me hyped! This is my time. I have made it through the darkness of winter and lived. I even got excited about that season too. I didn't let it get to me this year, well not too much at least.
My hopes to all that continue this journey with me is this...life is short. Laugh a little more. Tell those whom are in your life what they mean to you. Take chances go beyond your box. Give praise and thanks to the one who made you~you!

Excuse Me....This is not about you
Remember I had said that people walk into your life of a reason, a season, and a lifetime. Sometimes we don't know what category they fit until time presents itself.
I use to think so narrow that it was all about me. It was my reason, season and lifetime. But what if it is not about me. What if Im their reason, season. Maybe I was there to make them think about things that they just couldn't do until I walked into their life. Wow, I thought what a gift I was given. The power to make someone reevaluate the whats and hows of their life. I use to feel that I didn't have the greatness, no that is not the word maybe the gift to make a difference. I lacked the self confidence in me. That too is changing on my journey.
Figuring out that it isn't all about me and being ok with that. That can sometimes be a bit of reality check in your face. But I continue to look at my glass half full. Be a pineapple if you will.
My future is paved and I just need to walk down the road. I am where I am suppose to be at this very moment. I continued to feel enriched by those who have entered my life. Welcome to my world, stay as long as you need too. Some for a moment and some for a lifetime. I am truely blessed.

Letting Go
Wow that seems to be a new concept for me lately. Recently I have been forced to let a few things go in my life. It seems that once I figure things out and how my life needs to flow, something or someone comes into my world and makes me look in a different angle.
As you know I am a creature of habit, a girl with a schedule. I get into a groove and make things work. But what if the groove gets upset, no thats is not the word-rocked, nudged or jostle. Then where do I go. I have to reevaluate and go forward.
Letting go of some of my responsibilities of being a mother so that dad can be a father. It seems like a easy break, but is it? No it is letting go of that control thing that I have worked so hard to keep things organized and sane. Letting me feel that am off the clock for a brief moment, not that easy. Most would say enjoy the break, me time yea! I need too.
I need to have those things which I enjoy, readily available. When those me times present themselves so that I don't waste that precious time. Letting go is not always a bad thing. Growth and discovery, and maybe even grabbing hold of something or someone new. Not a bad thing at all.

To chose or Not?????????
Choices we make them everyday. But what if we choose not to choose. Isn't that too a choice? I think so. What if we want to gather more information before we make a decision? That too is a choice.
I am learning to be more flexible and more open to seeing things differently. In my past it always seemed to be my way or the highway. I am finally figuring it out that that is not the best way to live. What if a different point of view is better than the one I am looking at? Then we come back to choices. We have more information to make a better desicions.
But yet in gathering more information, we could come to more reasons not to make any choices. To sit back and observe. Is it time to move or just take it all in? Trust in oneself. It doesn't let us down. We are were we are because we are suppose to be here. Acknowledge it and be at peace.
