I have a thing with resolutions. Last year, none of my family made any resolutions. I made one and failed at it almost immediately. I spoke about it in the last post but, to be fair, my foot went down one whole shoe size!!! Of course I needed more shoes! How was I going to make it with just a few pairs of shoes? We went hiking and my hiking boots were way too big. I bought new ones and then I bought a few more pairs of shoes. It wasn't my fault that I walked through Dillard's when the Clearance shoes was 70% off.
In any case, I made no resolutions. I am on a weight loss journey, and I am down 70 pounds in 2 short years. I think that's good, but the struggle has been real! I will continue with my journey and I'm excited where it will take me. Last year I had not been reading and I set aside the last year to read and get more into the trending books. I fell back in love with words. I love the sound of the keyboard. I have been trying to get into some stories, and I have been writing more. I recently remembered a story that happened in 2002, and I had to write it down. Who knows if I would even remember in a few years what happened in the story. I need to write while the memories are fresh, and I am in a disposition to write.
I'm going to tell you that writing give me hope. I love the idea of having stories and a part of me that lasts beyond my life on this earth. I realize that my story is not about me but about Jesus. However, I also believe that the Lord leads us to what He wants us to do with this wonderful life that he has given us. For this reason, I'm blogging again. I know that blogging is not the way to go. I blog for myself. I blog because I am called to write. So here I am following the storytelling road and praying that the Lord helps me to write the stories He wants people to hear. With this in mind, I tell you all, Praise the Lord!!!
