Writing and miscellaneous ramblings

First, there are only 24 more days before our trip to Costa Rica!!! I am so looking forward to having the time away from responsibilities and work. I am looking forward to doing new things that I've never done and pushing the limits of my fears. I used to live my life afraid to do so many things. But having breast cancer has changed all that. I am much more eager to jump in to new experiences and I don't worry what might happen anymore. Whatever is going to happen WILL and I have really no control over it. So LIFE, bring it on!
I went to see the new movie "Hereafter" this past weekend and enjoyed it very much. After I walked out of the theater I could not get it off my mind. If you truly believe that everything in this life happens for a reason then there really is reason to enjoy this movie. We are all intertwined in a cosmic dance and the thought of that is so exciting. I recommend you see this movie.
I have decided to try my hand at writing. I am no longer afraid to make this attempt. I am looking forward to putting some of what goes on in this mind of mine down on paper. Who knows if anyone will find it interesting, humorous or entertaining but I'm going to do it anyway. I look forward to see what the world has in store for me in the arena.
I crave change. I have always been that way. I like to move furniture around and make the room look different. I like to plant different things and then move them if they would look better somewhere else. I think change is healthy. I mean I don't want to change my husband or anything like that but I do crave change of some kind. I crave different work, a different place to live, different meals at Christmas and picnics, different places to go on vacation......anything that gives me a push to renew my spirit. If change doesn't happen often then my spirit becomes stagnant and I become apathetic. I hate that about myself.
Today is a beautiful day! In fact, today is the day the Lord has made....rejoice and be glad!
