A New Life

Today something was sprung on me that I don't understand and I'm not sure I will ever be fully capable of understanding.  Why after so much has my world completely been set in disarray and chaos?  What could I possibly have done differently to change this?  The answer is nothing.  There is nothing I could have done differently, or better, to stop this difficult situation that is now suddenly upon me.  I know that ultimately God has a plan for me and will take me to where He wants me to go.  I will be contemplating these questions as the days go by and I wonder what it is that is in store for me in the future.

Traffic School and My Thoughts

As I sit here in Texas, away from everything I love and am comfortable with, I realize that there is so much for me to be thankful for. It has not even been three weeks apart from my husband and I have missed him from day one......you can only imagine how much I truly miss him at this point. Thankfully, the class I am involved in consumes most of my time and energy, so I don't have much time to realize what I am missing until I lay my head to sleep. I am usually completely exhausted by this time, though, so there isn't much time for me to reflect on everything when attempting to get the 5 good hours of sleep that I may or may not be lucky enough to get.




I pass the time with hours upon hours of homework, and when I am fortunate enough to get some free time, I engulf myself in the inspirational postings of my sister, Marie, and friends Leah O'Connor and Kaylee Hicks. I have to say I thoroughly enjoy reading their postings and feel inspired each and every time something new is posted. I consider myself fortunate to have been blessed with relationships with more consistency than what is normal, per se.




This leads me to another question yet again. What is normal? Today what may seem normal to the majority of people I pass from day to day, couldn't be further from what I want or what makes me happy. I love the fact that I can be at peace knowing that I don't have to be "normal" or "acceptable" to this world, and can be completely content in the thought that "this is my Father's world." I am exactly where He wants me to be and am perfect in His eyes.
