Showing others the miracles

As I've shared throughout the month about how I've shared my quest to find a miracle every day during the month of December with those in my closest circle. Yesterday was the pinnacle of that sharing.

The relationships I build are what fill me up inside. The interaction with others is what, I believe, we were put on this earth to cultivate. So yesterday when someone approached me to ask if they could forward an email invite to a meeting unexpectedly, a friend said, "I think I just witnessed one of your Christmas miracles!"

So go back a few months and this one of the resources in my work that struggled to understand what role I played and was intentional about leaving me out of meetings, and not sharing information. So this genuine change of heart was so amazing!

Sometimes it's not about the actual miracle. But the joy that comes from looking for them on a daily basis. And now that it's spread to others recognizing them I feel as though it has transcended the actual miracle.

Who would have thought?

Me, that's who!

Day 16: Six Word Memoir

"Thought about stopping, then ran harder." Day 16 for the Blogember challenge is a 6-word memoir. I could substitute 'ran' for 'tried' almost every day. Even if for just a brief moment I am paralyzed with fear, confusion, doubt - I press on. And that is the very best time …. knowing that I still have the power within me to continue to 'fight'. This can be a physical challenge, emotional challenge or just what appears to be a mountain of work to overcome…. whatever it is, if I choose to find a way through it, rather than around it - I'm successful. Happened again this week at work - and my husband reminded me last night. Why did you let it get you down for two days when you knew they best way to solve it was head-on, with a direct conversation? He's right. But I'm not successful with the conversation until I'm mentally prepared to have it. And yesterday I did. That's my mantra. For running, and for l...

Day 4: Freedom

Today's Blogember entry is to write about Freedom. Freedom is one of those words/emotions/concepts that has changed for me over the years. As I evolved and developed, so has how I view Freedom. Early on I thought of Freedom as rights that I have as a citizen, the right to choose and how lucky I am to live in a country where Freedom is afforded to me. Fast forward to today. Freedom to me still is resoundingly around my right to choose. And those choices are how I see myself, how I choose to present myself to the world. I have the freedom to make choices that resonate with my soul, and who I choose to be. Freedom is not being attached to all those nay-sayers who come into a life. With freedom from the dependency of other's approval comes independence and confidence. The ability to lean in to the life I have been given, carrying the lessons I've learned and the joy that sustains me. It is a purposeful life, one that encompasses freedom....
