It's been months since I have written...months since I have had the least bit of inspiration.
Today I am sitting on the beach on the east coast with my two awesome kids and I am full!! Full of peace and contentment and I feel centered. The roar of the unpredictable Atlantic Ocean fills my wind-chapped ears. I am watching my kids dig in the wet mud and build things...to only watch their masterpieces washed away by the salty foamy waves.
Life's daily challenges are sometimes so unexpected they can throw us for a loop and derail us. Self doubt and regret take their seat in our minds and we question everything and are left with slivers of hope...like broken glass on a floor, how do we "peace" it back together???
I fill my days with so much - packed absolutely chock a block full - and I realize that my personal growth and my continuous need to change and better myself is choking me! Choking the life and the inspiration out of me! I am me...I am strong. I am a mother and a teacher and a friend and a sister and a daughter. I have learned to love roller coasters at the age of 40 (oh did I fail to mention I turned 40 three blurry weeks ago!) and I am trying to embrace the quiet and truly change what NEEDS to be changed.
Whoah it's a lot but day by day, step by step I look around at the people in our lives and I become thankful that they are on this journey with me...riding the rollercoasters justifiably titled life's unexpectedness.
