Walking Your Truth...Simple yet not easy

What is it in our human makeup that causes us to believe that by ignoring important decisions that need to be made in our lives, that somehow we can be truly happy and that those choices will magically disappear?

I know that when we stand at a cross road of life with decisions that must be made, knowing the profound effect on every life that decision will touch, our tendency is to hesitate or even put the decision aside, telling ourselves it really isn’t that important. I know what it is like to stand on one side of a crossroad and know with all your heart that the decision you are about to make will hurt, you will feel sadness, there will be a feeling of a hole in your life and you will mourn the loss. What I also know is once you’ve step into and beyond that decision, and you feel all of those feelings in earnest, and are grateful for the gifts that were bestowed upon you in the time you spent in that part of your life, the feeling that will begin to grow in your heart as you move beyond, is one of relief and eventually peace. These feelings present themselves due to our inner knowing we all have, that finally things are set in their right order once again.

This has been a year I will never forget. It has been a year of crossroads so many I have lost count, nor wish to count. I stand looking at the end of this year with immense gratitude for all that has been given to me and all that I know I have given myself. My heart is touched greatly by the human spirit and I am looking forward to the following year with anticipation of the amazing events yet to unfold.
