2011 has been an amazing year! I lived my first year after the death of my mother and I lived My first year after the death of my first career. Well maybe my second career. My first and ongoing career is motherhood.
These deaths were painful and put me in a position to draw upon a glimmering light of inspiration. I began 2011 determined to live the heart of my dreams. This gave me energy to move forward, because I felt really hopeless at times. I think I was successful, but as usual only God knows how life will unfold.
One of my hearts desires in 2011 was to be an entrepreneur. This dream was realized and I had many early successes! As my need for doing things correctly and in order would have it, I had to get additional education. The education I am enjoying, but it is taking my business three steps backwards, before it goes forward!
I believe my training is necessary. I am going with the flow, although it is frustrating. The term bitter sweet is very appropriate.
The other most significant event occurred in my spiritual life. My desire to live without denial has created a distance between me and the church (building). I have already written about the behaviors I disagree with in church, but now my disagreement, even anger is directed at the establishment itself.
One of my goals in 2012 is to find Biblical answers to the problems I have with church (the building). I will share more about this in future posts.
Overall 2011 has been a phenomenal year! I have grown, learned and looked fear in the face and said, "Step the f--- off!" I am excited to step into a new year and be apart of everything that God has waiting for me. Empowerment is exhilarating!
I have made up my mind to make 2012 a year with NO LIMITS!!!! How are you going to live 2012?
Make some long and short terms goals and live each one of the 365 ahead to make them a reality!
