Dear friends, family, and anyone else who would like to read my blog. If you know me, than you know I had a blog for a while, but as my life is changing, I thought it was time for a fresh start on my blog as well. So welcome to my new blog! I don't know how often I'll be posting, but I will try to keep you all interested and reading.
As I mentioned, life is ever changing. I am starting over in almost all areas of my life. I'll be honest, it's ridiculously scary, but it's also opening doors that I never thought would open. I will continue to keep you posted, but if I can give anyone a word of encouragement today, it's to live through your fears. Fear is normal, and most people find that when they are scared, they remain in the same position. It's much easier to face what you know, even if it's hard, than to step out of your comfort zone, and risk things getting worse, but also knowing that things could get much better. I don't know what my future holds, but I know there are so many options, and so many chances to grow.
There's a flower that I love- it's called phlox. I've seen people sell them in pots before, or sell seeds to plant in your garden. Where I am living now it grows wild all over. It smells fabulous, and it's so bright and pretty. Every day when I see it, it reminds me that you don't always have to live inside the box of expectation. You can let yourself grow outside of your comfort zone, and you can be beautiful and thrive.
I am pretty tickled with this new start stuff! xxoo
