Changes are all around me, and I am proud to say that I am ok with it and handling it well. I worked for several hours last night packing up boxes of books, videos, curtains and notebooks that received little to no damage in the hail storm. The clean up has been more of a chore than I ever could have imagined. There is glass in everything, on everything, and once I think I have it all swept up I see the tiny slivers sparkling in the light. One good thing from all of this is finally getting everything out and into storage, organized and emptying the rooms to get them ready to repair and paint, and one of my favorite things is redecorating, so should we ever move back in it will be completed first.
I don't know where we'll end up, but I am praying every day for the right answers and so far I am receiving encouragement, and sometimes see the light at the end of the tunnel.
The stubbornness remains, but the longer I wait and longer I cause everyone around me to wait, they are forced to appreciate what they have taken for granted, and it will only benefit me in the end.
Patience. Changes. Moving forward.
Observations, experiences, lessons learned, spiritual realizations, long deserving breaths of air...
