You see in the first quarter of the year, it dawned on me that I didn’t like it where I was and much as I was ever so thankful for all the little steps that were evidence of me going forward or not, I determined that I needed even more change to get to where I wanted to be. With almost just about one person to confine in, my brain has for the better part of the year been working overtime and yes, with a little straining of the eyes, I am starting to see the fruits.
I am not where I want to be yet, but then I am not where I used to be, the time flies so fast and sometimes in my human weakness I wonder if I will ever get to where I want to be or is there even such a thing especially as people seem to want more with the more they get. Well, for now I seem to have taken things in my stride and am determined that when I get there, and by His grace will definitely get there I will take time to smell the roses and just savor and enjoy the simple pleasures of life.
You see, as the time has been flying, my brain has in between breaks (luckily it hasn’t switched off) worked with me to prioritize what matters in life and for everything I have gone through and am going through I seem to pause more often and wonder what is the significance and lessons for me to carry away for the future. This thinking and pondering I guess I will attribute to age, after all you know what they say about old wind. Needless to say I try to look for the child in me often times and much as am getting older and wiser, I have refused to get old. The holding on to my youth is what most times gives me the zeal to keep dream and hold hope against hope as I pursue what seems unattainable in the moment but which I know with time will come.
My wishes for 2014 are that I will pause more often and not just wonder where the time has gone, but do more than smell the roses, keep my ideals, keep learning and stay young.
