On and on we go.

I am in love with this time of year. Or maybe it's because the fall is coming? Whatever the reason, I am enjoying the time I have had to really sit back and enjoy the life I have been given. Maybe it's because I have a foot out of commission and have to take breaks but all in all it has been a good week. :) Today I was able to shuffle around in the garden with my Momma. I forget how I can be happiest outside with the grass under my feet, the sun shining in my hair and the beautiful sky overhead. I think that everyone needs to be reminded that it's the simple things that matter most. Whether it is digging around in a garden, or walking in the moonlight, sharing a great meal, or having someone say they love you; that is was matters. Not the big paycheck, or the best car, or the biggest house. Be happy where you are, or you will never be happy.

Changes

As I wrote previously I was mostly complaining... One of the things I hate most about myself is that I can be negative sometimes without even realizing it. Anyways I have been working on that and I am happy to say that it is going well! These past few weeks have really changed and challenged me I finally realized that I can't expect to change on the outside if I am not also changing on the inside. PTL! I know that the only way I will change my heart and it's character is by renewing my mind ( Romans 12:2)  I am just SO thankful for the life I am living right now! Sure the future is not all planned out but I am CONTENT. I am going to use this time to grow and learn how to trust the Lord  in everything I do. I had to let go of a friend when I realized that I was being hurt instead of helped. I am still sad that I couldn't "fix" the situation but I know it was for the best, hopefully one day I will be able to talk to him and not still feel irritated and wronged. I am praying that the next time I meet him I will be able to be cordial and kind because he really needs that. I gave it my best and that's all I could do. I hope that one day he will realize what he did was wrong and that he needs to be kind instead of critical. Just to let you know I am not and was NEVER "interested" in starting anything with him, I just worry for that girl that will one day say she loves him. (that is my secretly caring heart talking right there) ;)

Love to all!
