As I was chatting with my darling husband last night about some of the recent challenges I've been faced with...it occurred to me that I was being the quintessential cry baby. I had an excuse for every inquiry he made about my challenges. And when it hit me like a flippin' two-by-four to the head, man was I pissed!! He smiled...you know the one...the one where he was proud of his accomplishment.
Seeing as I've not had a restful night's sleep in days, I took it as an opportunity to explore my mind and get to the bottom of my quite despair. Obviously something has been eating at me for quite some time or else the sleep would have come easy. What did I discover?
I lost sight of my vision...it had become blurred somehow. In the midst of all the chaos, which I managed to create some of it, I had lost sight on what my purpose was to begin with. Rather than putting my foot down and diggin' my feet in, I had lost my balance and allowed myself to be taken out to sea and have just been treading water.
Funny how the mind will resolve what needs to be resolved once the block is removed. I now know what I must do to cast a better vision for myself and for those who follow me. I know the path I must walk and the journey that must be taken if my vision...my dreams...are to be realized. Thank goodness for darling husbands who know how to be a total pain the butt sometimes...God bless them all!!
You are an amazing leader, Christina... always caring and supportive to others...Sometimes the greatest challenge is taking care of oursleves...
