Peace of Mind

Many people know that the past 11 years have been very hard for me.  There are many reasons; none of them need to be elaborated on anymore.  But my mind has been in a constant turmoil all that time.  Making decisions  has been hard because of my constant second-guessing.  And I always had so much on my mind, I was very easily distracted and restless.  That drove me (and my daughter) crazy. In the 3-1/2 weeks I have been in Pennsylvania, that is gone.  There is nothing churning inside.  I am focused on and moving forward with my goals.  I know my time frames, and am concerned with them, but they are not weighing me down.

It feels wonderful!  It is hard to communicate how truly great this is.   A new adventure literally waits around every corner, and I'm so excited about the possibilities!  I didn't think I would ever be so excited about life again, but here it is! 

"I learned this, at least, by my experiment:  that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours."

                                                              -Henry David Thoreau
