I always cherish the moments that I have to sit in silence and just be.  Today I am doing just that and I am so glad. I have been so busy lately with life in general that I had to take a moment to re-focus.  I just recently had a birthday and in a moment of reflection on my special day  I thought about how much I have changed, evolved, and how much more of me is evolving and continuously changing. It was during my time of reflection that I thought about events of the past, circumstances, present & future. Some times it is painful for me to know that I am still dealing with choices that were made in the past, but I am thankful because I have the opportunity to create a better now moment and to make better choices today.  God is good and in the midst no matter what and for that I am thankful. When I think about how blessed I am to have life, breath, and the opportunity to orchestrate the chapters in my life with God leading the way..it makes me smile.
