Life these days

Seems busy.

It seems as though weeks zoom by (similar to my zoom zoom mazda car!)

and before I realize it, its already the weekend.

This is great, except for the reason that my weeks zoom by is that my days are long.

I get done working at 7pm everyday except for wednesdays.

On weds I am at my internship, which is a post for another day.

I look up and I am like holy crap is it the middle of October!

when did that happen?

I drive to and from work and try and be present in those still moments.

I try and just always be present. Like today I noticed the leaves falling off

the trees from the wind and rustling around the streets.

I love fall. It truly is my favorite season.

I get to wear hats and not be a million degrees. and layers hmmmm :)

Life is still continuing around me.

People are busy.

The world is chugging along like it always did, so what's the point?

I sometimes feel like when I get done with work

the only energy I have left to do at the end of the day

is try and figure out dinner and maybe facebook and watch a tv show.

healthy right? But I kinda feel like I need to check out from most obligations

in my life right now so I can maintain sanity.

I feel bad because I don't want people to think it is

on purpose or that I am mean, and the other side to this

coin, is I hate to be out of the loop.

But I have also realized that this year there

are a lot of things that I have to accept and

just move on.

People have made comments that I feel like

I haven't seen you in forever, which they haven't.

And that is life right now. It is kind of a bear, but

I am picking my chin up and moving forward.

My theme of life will continue....choose joy!

Choose joy when my alarm is going off and I am

attempting to peel myself out of my bed... thank God

that I can hear the birds chirping.

Make myself coffee as I drive to work and thank God

that I have a job to drive to, a job that I love!

Get to work and get bombarded with all the people

that need something and thank God that I have been

blessed with the abilities to help these people.

What they say does not scare me. It makes me

dig my feet into the sand and say I will stick

out this storm with you.

This season has stripped away a lot of the fluff of

my life. It is down to the bare essentials.

What I have also found out?

I am a lot stronger then I previously knew.

Things I cannot life without...

God.

James. and his love :)

sweet moments.

good food.

good music.

and sleep.
