Another Year Older...

Wow, I can’t believe it’s been three whole years since I started this blog.  It’s kind of crazy to look back and see how far I’ve come, and how much I’ve grown.  I feel happier, stronger, and more at peace as a person now, than ever before over the span of my life.  I won’t lie… I’m kind of proud of  myself.
 
That being said, there is still work I want to do, and goals I want to accomplish.  So much so, that I often feel super anxious because I feel like time is just running out.  But, I think as long as I stay organized and on top of my goals, I’ll accomplish what I want.  (Hopefully!)   There are so many things that I’m looking forward to.  For one, my bestie is getting married!  So, I’ll be traveling to Italy for the first time for the wedding.  And while I’m over in Europe, I also hope to make a stop in Paris!  I’m also looking forward to making my new house, more of a home.  I’ve lost some steam with getting everything in order, but I hope that in the next couple weeks I can start making progress again. 
 
I can’t quite put my finger on it, but I feel like I’m at a turning point.  Like, things will be changing.  And, that makes me both excited and nervous.  While I want the challenges to keep on coming, so that I continue to grow as a person, with new experiences adding to my overall level of understanding.  I also worry these challenges could be extremely painful.  I just pray that God continues to work on me, and teach me lessons in kind and loving ways.

The Taste of Fall

All of a sudden it’s fall.   It’s like a switch was flipped.   The nights are cooler (well, I think they’re down right cold) and the days are shorter.   I’m wearing light jackets, and thoroughly enjoying the new trench coat the I picked up back in August.   Today I had my first Pumpkin Spice Latte of the season.   And, it was amazing.   I’m so excited that fall is here.   I just love all the spices and flavors in fall seasonal food.   I’m looking forward to trying out some very delicious looking recipes that I’ve been saving for cooler weather, and partaking in some fall-ish activties.   I just hope it doesn’t get too cold too soon!

Don't Lose Focus

I realized lately that I’ve started to lose my drive and focus when it comes to personal growth and improvement.   I hit, what felt like a major milestone a couple weeks ago, and I think in a way I felt like I could take a break.   And, while a break is ok, my “breaks” tend to last too long, or I simply stop entirely.   I recognize that I need to keep going on my current path.   Because, if I stop now, it could set me back.   And, I’m so tired of being set back, and being left behind.   What are those things that you’ve been putting off?   What is something that is undone in your life?   Get on it girl!  Even if you don't finish the task, start it today !

Oh Lord

When I die, put my ashes in the trash bag I don't care where they go Don't waste your money on my gravestone I'm more concerned about my soul Everybody's gon' die Don't everybody live though Sometimes I look up to the sky And wonder do You see us down here? Oh Lord, oh Lord, do You see us down here? Oh Lord, oh Lord, do You see us down here? Oh Lord, oh Lord, do You see us down here?

Oh Lord, oh Lord, do You see us down here? Oh Lord, oh Lord, do You see us down here? Oh Lord, oh Lord, do You see us down here? Oh Lord, oh Lord It's easy to blame God but harder to fix things We look in the sky like, "Why ain...
