Time to Catch Up!

October 27th, 2009

Well, as you can see it has been awhile since I have been on here. Things have been rediculously crazy. I had a networking event, where I was asked to speak on a dinner cruise out of Sanford! I am so excited because it will be followed by a book signing. Things are falling into place :0)
I am also preparing for the Making Strides for Breast Cancer walk this Saturday. I have almost reached my monetary goal, so that is super awesome!
This past weekend, I had a moment where I sat back and looked at myself. I realized I wasn’t happy with some things. It started when I read this quote…”What we are, is God’s gift to us. What we become, is our gift to God.” ~ Eleanor Powell
Have you ever read something that just instantly made you stop and think? Well, this is exactly what happened to me! I have been so busy running around and squeezing things in, that I haven’t let other things fall through the crack and that is not acceptable. I need to get control of what is going on in my life. I want my life to be something that I am proud of and I want to help inspire others. I want God to look down on me and say yes, she is walking through me and she is in my hands. I let a lot of things go this weekend that I had been holding onto because I was afraid. When I read that quote, it was like a ton of bricks were thrown at me. What in the world was I doing? Holding on to that stuff was just bringing me down and I am no longer letting that happen. I immediately looked up and asked him to take it all…and guess what, he took it! I feel so much better and things have been going in a much more positive direction. This is more proof to me that it is all about mind set and what we allow in our lives. I am a changed girl and I will no longer let sadness or anger take over. Now, I am human and will have my days, but it is so much better to deal with those emotions when you let yourself be led by the hands of the “Big G.” It is all a journey and I am learning that mine is pretty amazing and I am truly blessed to have what I have. Amazing family, friends, and faith. What more does a girl need? :0)
