An adventure....that's what I keep telling myself.
I know you're out there - you...the controlling one that always wants to be sure life is in perfect order. Well, sister....how do you handle the chaos? How do you let go & let it be?
I am such a total control freak - I am fortunate my mother taught me, "Let go, Let God." Should I tattoo this on the back of my eyelids so I don't forget? I always remember it in my calm....but when I'm revving that blood pressure, mind is racing, heart is pumping & I can hardly breath from the "out of control" feeling my mind draws a blank.
I keep trying to tell myself - think of it like when I was 19, single w/ no kids.....I was always looking for my next adventure. What's really so different?...a 1 & 3 year old, a husband & too many worries. But I know it can be done....remember Breakfast at Tiffany's - my favorite film. It's that carefree, happy-go-lucky feeling of "come what may." (I need to watch that again!)
Phillipians 4:13....thanks AR.
How do you remind yourself?

About Me
- Courtney
- I am a wife, a mom, a daughter & friend trying to journey the best path in life. My goals are: Great wife, Fabulous mom, and Good community member. I am overly critical and hard on myself. I am fearful (like everyone else) & do my best to show strength. I am striving to be stronger, kinder & more understanding in my day-to-day life. I love my husband completely & love being on "our team" together. Another goal...get closer to God (or whatever you want to call him/her). I want stronger faith in my life & I have people who are inspiring me in that area.
HA! it's an everyday struggle, you know that. sometimes just the little inspiraitons of friends (like u) keep me going. there is no order in chaos it's just more fun sometimes!
ReplyDeleteHey I had posted another comment and it didn't take! I was re-thinking this and realized that it must be related to the responsibility of it all. It seems to take the fun out of it, most days.
