Looking at myself for a change...

I love being a friend, a sister, an aunt, a daughter...but sometimes I think I forget how to be me. Over this Lenten season I have taken a step back and examinging my life...myself. Who have I become? Is it who I want to be? I have been making a lot of realizations, and some of them I am not the proudest of. I am going to make changes in my life...some will be difficult...others hard...but I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength. I wouldn't be where I am today without him. I think the hardest is going to be getting to know myself again. For so long I have been trying to be someone that everyone else wanted me to be. I will learn who the real me is. And I will be asking who I want to continue having in my life. I am pruning and weeding at the same time! If you like it, stay and encourage...if you don't...feel free to drift away. I am who I am, and I am not going to change for anyone else but God. It's my life and I am going to make the decisions in my life without feeling guilty about it! I am not making decisions for my life that I think are hazardous, I am making them because I think they are beneficial to MY life.
