Once upon a time I thought that each day, month, and year was a step by step process to growing up. What I did not know that just because another day passes doesn't mean you are any closer to growing up. It is a heart wrenching and grueling process, at least it has been for me. There is nothing more true than the fact that we are all ever changing, evolving, and growing.
When 'change' happens it is so hard to notice because you are so focused on making it through whatever is happening. Looking back it is easier to see what a major/minor transformation has occurred. Who I was 6 months ago(let's not even go further than that!) doesn't come close to comparing to who I am today.
Once I was lost, now I am found.
I was damaged and now I am healed.
I was fearful and now I am faithful.
I was broken and now I am complete.
I was judgmental now I am
I was self absorbed and now I live to serve others.
I was settling for less and now I am reaching for greatness.
I hope that each moment I am given in this lifetime, I am working on bettering who I am. I will never be content with just 'being' anymore. I live to serve a greater purpose outside of myself - 'me' doesn't matter...only He and His matter!
