| Starting to rebuild. And, shrink. |
Hello to all the surfers who happen to stop by my brand new blog. I was resistant to starting such a thing; publicly posting my thoughts and feelings just seemed a bit much. But, I find that in new ventures, it is easiest when you are motivated.
So, here I am. You are my audience, my motivation, my "accountability partner" of sorts. I am your enjoyment, your motivation, your inspiration? I don't know which category is most appropriate. I'll let you make that determination.
So, what new venture am I starting? Well, I am piecing myself back together after several years of difficulties. Nothing incredibly traumatic, mind you - just things I did not anticipate that really took some of my "oomph." Or, as Austin Powers might say - my mojo.
I found myself battered and bruised following a divorce a few years ago, figuratively speaking. I was so completely broken. My heart was broken. My mind was just a jumbled mess of "what happened"s. And soon after, my body showed the mess going on inside of me. I gained weight and lost much of my physical strength and agility.
I found much solace in the Lord at my lowest point. What is the saying? When God is all you have left, God is all you need? Something along those lines. I found a wonderful church home and developed a wonderful network of friends and volunteer opportunities through that connection. I've straightened out some of my insides and realize I need my outsides to start matching up!
It is time for more than just a new outlook. I must continue to address my "issues" (some call it baggage) and come to terms with a failed marriage. But I must also address the physical side of myself. I need to grow; and I need to shrink.
So... today, I bring you into my personal revolution. Welcome!
