Turning Corners


Do you ever find it hard to describe what is in your heart? Struggle to find the right words? Feel like if you do you may sound like a crazy person? For a very long time now I have felt like I am on the verge of something great. I don't know in what capacity though. I don't know if it is spiritually, healthy, relationshipy (not sure if that is a word lol), financially, or just just another lesson I need to learn......maybe an experience that I need to, well, experience. Something bigger than me is working its way trying to get out and open up to something bigger and better. I don't really know what that all means. I don't know how to properly explain it or put my finger on it exactly. Wheels are turning and I am going with it. I am open and hopefully ready. Sometimes I feel like it is right around the corner and I can't run fast enough to find it. I feel a bit frantic like I might miss it.

Tonight as I sit in a very quiet house I am very reflective of the course my life has taken over the past several years. I feel like I lived a life in which I knew all the answers.........to now, living a life in which I realize I do not have all the answers. There are days I am not totally sure which way is better. But what I do know is that I am enjoying the journey into finally taking the time to discover who I really am. To find out what I believe, just for me. To find out what makes me tick. What makes me giddy with excitement. What makes be burst with joy and love.

So as I continue on this journey, I feel part of it is to be a bit more transparent. I spent so many years so worried about what others think of me. Years trying to do what I thought everyone else wanted me to do. Well, I am done living like that.  I think maybe with me being a little bit more transparent I will not feel the burden of trying to live perfectly. Maybe living a bit more transparent I will find what I need to find. So here's to turning as many corners as I need to............

  1. I think this is a natural progression as we get older, too, Amy. We gain more confidence as women and learn to discover our true personal identity. Keep turning those corners and never feel guilty for seeking to find the hidden treasures that life has to offer!

  2. Yes, I agree. I actually feel a bit silly that I am waking up to that realization as I see how many others are going through this too. I guess it is all part of this journey of life.

    Thank you my friend, for leaving a comment! xo
