Thoughts

" Listen to your life.  See it for the fathomless

mystery it is.  In the boredom and pain of it,

no less than the excitement and gladness:

touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and 

hidden heart of it, because in the last analysis

all moments are key moments,

and life itself is grace."

Looking back I am grateful for the things I wished had not happened.

Comforted by the realization , that the journey

 I am on isn't just about being healed,

 but mostly about becoming whole.

And thankful for a Father in Heaven and His Grace,

to find my place in this great big beautiful life He has given me.

Woman

" Many women today feel a sadness we cannot name.

Though we accomplish much of what we set out to do,

we sense that something is missing in our lives

 and-fruitlessly-search "out there" for the answers.

What's often wrong is that we are disconnected

from an authentic sense of self. "

....and everyday I strive to become a bit more 

of who I was meant to be all along. 💗

Love & hugs !! 💖

Personality

I took a personality test a couple weeks ago.

It was in a magazine I picked up off of the floor,

in my attempt to distract myself from being frustrated.

Long story short...

I couldn't be what I was. It was not a combination that I could be.

Apparently if I was it...

I was "masking".

So I took it another time...looking up every trait along the way.

Going back in time.

Before I thought I had to behave as the world

[the people around me]

wanted.

My lowest score [5] on the first test...

was my highest [29] 

on the second.

I. Was. *dumbfounded*

 So I am NOT a

Perfect Melancholy/ Popular Sanguine that-I-can't-be-anyway....

I am a Peaceful Phlegmatic !

It took a whole lot of my confusion about life.... and made it make sense again.

Because when you don't really know who you are,

and your always trying to be the best you can be....

it might help to know what you started with. 😉

Slow

It was a gorgeous weekend !!

Cooler temperatures were so welcomed !!

We were finally able to spend most of the day outside

with out melting.

So I came up with a great plan to move really slow,

hoping that maybe it would make our weekend last

a little bit longer.

Sounds good huh ?

Truth is,

I played out the whole

"ram-your-little-toe-into-the-chair-at-full-speed"

act first thing Saturday morning.

So slow was all I could do.😉

"Slow down and enjoy life.

It's not only the scenery you miss by going too fast -

you also miss the sense of where you are going and why."

Love and hugs !! 💗
