The waiting game

My choice at this moment
is to view myself as waiting.
or
to view myself as there.


Am I waiting for something better?
Am I where I should be?

While the answer changes
based on the day,
the essence of the answer
has to be found
within the contentment
of the moment!

Maybe I hope that one day
things will look a little different..
but if this is it,
This is not a bad place to be!

Friends, family, children..
weekends aways..
girls nights outs-
a job I love,
a church I enjoy.
hobbies that distract me
and friendships that fulfill me!
Family that accepts me
and children that remind me,
why every breath I take counts!
and above all a Lord that sustains me.

Life could be MORE..
but it could be LESS,
so in this moment-
it is just RIGHT!

I'm BAAACK!:)

I left blogging
believing that life 
had reached the end of a season,
who knew that
this stage of my life
travels in circles.

content alone,
unhappy without,
ready for more,
not ready at all...

Like a merry go round!

As I look at what it all means..
why it all happens..
where I am
and where I want to be,
I realize that
it comes down to one thing;
me!

Am I where I want to be?
Am I as strong as I need to become?
have I learned how to be enough alone
or am I sure that I will be more than enough
with another?

and so the journey continues.
and I am quite sure
that its time to put it in words...

and so it goes.
and so it goes.

not THAT ready...

so for almost 10 months
for reasons of my own..
I have not been on any 'dates'
(fix-ups,blind dates,ect)

so I finally decided it was time.
to say yes to  a date...
so I did.

It was not awful!
but, it was not good...
it felt like hard work!

and I once again know
I am ready!
but not ready at all costs..
not ready for readiness sake..
I am ready for right!

I am happy with my life..
and what I hope for
will only be found
in the arms of the right person!

I can find companionship
with my friends..
and I do!
I can find happiness
with my kids...
and I do!
I can find fulfillment
in my work....
and I do!

 so..ready...
but not THAT ready!
