Mirror Images

There are times in life when everything seems to sort of coincide. I'm in one such "moment" right now. I think that 2012 is going to be a tough learning year for me. I've been challenged lately to step back, take an honest look in the mirror and deal with what I see. Both the good and the bad. It's one of those things that is difficult at first. It hurts to have people be very honest with you, but at the same time, it feels great once it's over. Like ripping off a band-aid.

I have a few things to deal with in my life before I can good and properly move forward. But once I've done that I know I'll be better off to move in the directions that I would like to go.

This move to Maine is temporary. Though I'm not trying to wish the time away, I know that I will not be staying here long term. There are several reasons for that which I won't go into, but I just know that the time will come to move on from here. But for now, I'm going to use this as an opportunity to learn from others and from myself so that I can go forward a better person. And I do have a lot to learn.

My heart is in those areas of the world that so desperately need help and hope. And I am seriously thinking and praying about my next opportunity to go.... somewhere. God knows the desires and dreams of my heart and He will make a way. I am sure of that.

I'm so grateful for the support system that I have in friends and family. Couldn't live without them. I'm blessed to know some amazing people.

If you follow this blog at all, stay tuned. I have a feeling this is going to be a crazy year. :-)
