When we are planted, we are given an opportunity to set firmly in our space, spread our roots and take hold. To make this space our own. We are in a creative place, a place of ownership. Designing and refining are part of our day on most days, right? They could be and should be, or we begin to lose focus and perhaps, purpose.
I have lived a really great life, for the most part. I am pretty adaptable, I flourish in new places, I like to explore, create, and design, make new, and breathe life back into the old. I am all about reuse, repurpose and recycle. That explains my eclectic home, disarray of furnishings, and a wardrobe that turns heads, and not always in a good way. I see beauty in things that some might not understand. My eyes see differently, and I have prayed for that my whole life. I am not like most, and I truly am not like many. Again, mostly by choice.
I am who I am because He says so…I cling to these words. As long as He gets me, I am good with it. Am I still human with feelings that hurt, feel pain, and get angry? Absolutely! I fail daily and I see that that as growth and another opportunity to find another path. I love digging in and doing, I love to see others flourish, grow and succeed. That is what this life is all about.
For those of us that believe in the afterlife, eternity, Heaven, and I am open to whatever anyone believes, as long as it is not of an evil nature. Not my job to judge, I am just passing through this life. We are spiritual beings with a body, having a human experience, for this go around.
And, the rest is yet to be written…
