Contentment


So, oddly enough, I have been very content lately.  Usually I am anxiously awaiting the next big event or counting down until the next time I can sleep in (you know you do that too...), but lately I have been much more satisfied with today.  What a blessing!  I usually somewhat dread the start of school, mostly because it means extremely early mornings, (did I mention that I am not a morning person?), a ridiculous schedule, and not being at home (which is where I am happiest).  This summer I have kind of "found myself" and really discovered what I believe is my purpose.  I have found something(s) that I am truly passionate about and I understand where I want to go in life.  Maybe that is where my contentment comes from...maybe it's because I have had time to just "be" instead of running around like a crazy woman.  Either way, thank goodness.  I hope that you are content where you are and that you are feeling the same blessings.  If not, (shameless plug...) my wonderful husband has a gift with helping in the process of figuring out your purpose...give him a call.  :)
