I had regrets. Instantly. What had I done? Did I just put myself out there to not only be in front of people but be in front of people in a fancy dress – with lights, cameras, hair, and makeup!?!?

There’s something about age that makes you pause on your moments a bit longer than youth. They seem to mean more. Their value is more relevant. Their impact more lasting. Their significance more – significant. You begin to understand adding full value to your moments is all up to you. You, I, We are in control of what happens as well as what doesn’t happen in life.
This is hard. Life that is. So much harder than I thought it would be when all I had to worry about was myself. Not in a selfish way but in an I had no other responsibilities kinda way.
Why then has this word that has always seemed to challenge me to come to me as one to instead inspire and encourage me in a year I am so uncertain of? A year that was at once a blur and exhaustingly long.
I need to write, right? I mean I’m a Blogger. It’s what I do BUT there are times when I simply want to write for the sake of getting my thoughts on paper . . .
One way I start every year is to select one word to help me focus on life and in business. This year that one word seemed to elude me. I had a few ideas yet every time I sat down to try and write my why it just didn’t fit. Until last week . . .
. . . finding my new balance in my life is taking time but it’s also building me into a stronger woman and for that I am grateful.
Every year I have one major wish for my birthday. This year my wish was to see a sunrise on the beach. I know, not a super big deal for most but something I’d never done so a big deal for me. Thank goodness I have a Hubby you wanted to make sure my wish came true with a surprise planned trip to Myrtle Beach.
