Musings on my transformations from one version of me to another. There are many chapters in My Story, some that I want, and try, to quickly finish and others that I want to hold on to forever. There are even some chapters that refuse to let go of me. But as each chapter comes to a close, and I turn the page, I find my soul reshaped, remolded. My Story is the evolution of me as a daughter, wife, sister, friend and a mother. The evolution of a woman.

My Love
The stillness of a nap hour is a magical gift. Not to be taken advantage of. The possibilities are endless. For me, today, the magic is the quiet lull. Tomorrow the magic may be a clean house. The next day the magic might come in the form of a work out. Right now, though I am fully content to sit and ponder what means most to me; the journey I am on with my Love.. Sometimes this life long journey feels like a car accident that never (thankfully) happened. Sometimes the journey feels like a joyous jubilant party. There are times that it feels like an exciting, daring adventure! Other times it feels wildly tragic. Most of the time though it feels comfortable. During these comfortable times I seem forget that the journey moves us still, through life. I sometimes fail to be a witness to all that our lives have to offer.
My Love is extremely loyal, patient, self sacrificing, scientific, hopeful, confident, passionate, cultured, intelligent, and faithful. What an awesome life partner! During theses comfortable times however I tend to forget to look for these qualities. My comfortableness tends to slide into laziness and my laziness tends to lead us into dark and stormy areas that I would prefer not to be. I forget to be a witness to all the greatness that is passing me (us) by.
I dont want my journey to be forgettable. I want it to be meaningful, exciting, fresh and lovely. Being comfortable on a journey is always a good thing, but laziness on the journey should never be tolerated, especially when I am so lucky to be with such a great man! ...And that is where the magic can be found. It can be found when we take enough time to meditate upon our circumstances, to course correct when needed and to pay a compliment when it is long overdue.
