Isn’t it interesting when we take a step back and look at our life and the roads we have traveled? Isn’t it beautiful when we take a moment to take a birds eye view and see the prayers both answered and not answered, and how even in the trying times, the meandering and wandering of our paths were absolutely perfect. And that we are never really alone and never have anything perfectly figured out, just as the name and tagline of this blog suggests, but that in and of itself is perfect and beautiful and half the fun? Isn’t it amazing when we take a moment to reflect on all our blessings and how wonderfully incredible this life is, even with all the pain we have to endure. Life and this journey and these roads we travel, from smooth and paved and going 70 mph to unpaved, bumpy, rocky, curvy and slow, is so incredible and I am feeling so blessed to be living here at this time.
Speaking of roads traveled, it’s been a long time since I’ve touched this blog. And traveling different roads is exactly what I’ve been doing. I’ve been on a search for my life’s purpose, my soul’s calling, feeling like I’m right there with a firm understanding of what it is and then being led down a different meandering road to something new, something I wouldn’t have known about or been able to see had I not just been on the road I was on. It’s been exhausting, feeling like I will never quite figure it out, but amazing at the same time. I feel like I have grown and gotten to know myself and my beliefs and who I am at an exponential rate and level these last couple years, but especially these last 6 months. And again, as this blog suggests, I don’t think I will ever have all the answers and my path will not fully be figured out and my purpose will ever be evolving and growing and changing. So instead of waiting to have it (my message, my career, my path) figured out perfectly, I just need to jump in and get my feet wet and learn as I go. If I change my mind a million times, so be it. It will still be the right path at the right moment in time. Always.
As my Dad always used to say: “If you find a fork in the road, take it!”
Until next time….
