Pick Your Hard

For me CHANGE is hard. Unless it is MY idea, then it's great! I think FEAR is what causes us to not accept change easily. That's a "control" issue, in my opinion. But think about it, we don't take the time to THINK and peel back the layers and look at what is truly holding us back. It's not the change, but the loss of control to the change and that equals fear of not being in control. Bottom line...fear. I started this blog years ago when I was embarking on weight loss surgery. After not having the surgery, I felt like I still had things to say and share, but all in all, my issues are always surrounded around WEIGHT. Ugh. I can't deny it, it is what I always think about no matter what I'm doing, where I'm going, and what is going on in the future. How did this happen?

You know how you start out with your day and you've got your list (Love lists!) and you've got your pen, your paper, your schedule, your whole entire day planned to the minute! Yeah, right! God's plan is something totally different from what you even THINK you had planned! He says, "Um, okay, you go ahead, and I'll just be here if you need me" and then it happens...the total opposite. So you can choose to be either roll with the punch

Burning Bridges

When I was a younger and very immature, I really  didn't  know the meaning of "Burning Bridges". I mean, I did, but I REALLY didn't. As a woman in her late 40's, I now TRULY know the meaning of burning bridges. I'd always heard people say, "you should never burn your bridges because you never know when you might have to cross back over them." As a young person you don't really fully get the feeling of the road you're traveling down. You don't realize that your life is a journey. No, when you're young you can't see past the end of your nose to see 20 minutes ahead, or tomorrow or next week, next month, next year. You can't see that on your journey you will encounter bridges. Those bridges  are not always tangible or  clearly defined as they are in real life.  In real life when you're driving down the road and you see a structure that crosses over a body of water or land, it is very definite that you are on a suppor
