Growth

So it turns out the hardest thing about blogging is...um writing posts.  Weird.  Also being away for so long has not helped me get back into the grove either. 

Life the past year has been challenging.  But a good challenging for the most part.  I have learned so much and find myself happier now than I thought possible a year ago.  I find myself learning and growing daily and that keeps me going to a new day every day.  My friend sent me a quote today that I have thought about constantly since I've read it. 

“Happiness is neither virtue nor pleasure nor this thing nor that but simply growth. We are happy when we are growing."  --William Butler Yeats

I love it!  I have been growing and stretching out of my comfort zone constantly for the past year.  At times I didn't think I would make it another day but I have.  All the tears and the anger have been completely worth it for the growth and happiness that I feel now.  Life is still hard, but you know what I am blessed.  Blessed more than I can comprehend.  The Lord is so good to me!  There are many new goals and challenges that I have set for myself over the next year.  I am looking forward to taking you on the journey with me.  Don't give up on my blogging skills yet! :)  Cause we are going to have some fun and there will be laughing along the way!
