New Opportunities

I can feel it all around me. Life is shifting and new doors are opening to allow me to live my dream life wholly. Of course, I have my part to do in this equation:

1. Know that I am 100% responsible for everything that happens in my life.
2. Always choose what I prefer in any given situation.
3. See the blessings in every situation.
4. Love, love, love.
5. KNOW that God loves me wholly and completely no matter the circumstance.
6. Love, love, love. more.

What a journey. I'm ready!

Transitions

I carefully watch for signs of transitions in my life and they always come with a sense of being overwhelmed. I am in that spot now. Life is too full. I have a day job in which I am doing the jobs of at least 2 1/2 people, I am laying the foundation for my real 'heart's desire' career, I have a social life that is waning but still full, I have planned trips on the horizon, I have accepted a working position as an officer in my local Toastmasters club, I have friends that I have not connected with in way too long, I have children who need my guidance and comfort, and my mother has just taken seriously ill which necessitates adding 3 hour trips (one way) to Dallas to the equation and daily checkup phone calls (and she has asked that I accompany her to her appointments to four different doctors). My newly hired publicist is wiating for my lead to my expanded career in professional speaking. This is all the tip of the iceberg.

I would curl up in bed and cry if I did not recognize that this sense of overwhelm is forcing me to choose. 'Who do I want to be?' 'Where do I really want to put my precious time?' The minute I answer these questions, the layers of overwhelm will peel away. I know this because I have been here before. Life always signals a major transition - we just have to pay attention. Stay tuned for my next life chapter.

Everything is Possible

This is my new mantra. I know that the world speaks 'anything is possible' but that is just not BIG enough. Everything is possible. Every single deepest held desire is possible in every single life. I know this just as surely as I know that breathing is necessary to live. My dreams are possible because I believe that God wants me to have my every desire. Do you believe the same thing for your life? You might as well, because it is true whether you believe it or not. Life is full of possibilities - pick any one - everything is possible!
