A band-aid for my soul.

This season of my life has taught me a lot more about myself and the inner strength I didn't know I had. The fear of what others may think of me has robbed me of the better part of the last year, and the ability to even connect with anyone new let alone with those already in my life. But life has come full circle and I am finding that I feel freer letting go of what others think of me, and that if anyone sees me as a ungracious person then there is nothing I can do about it. If anyone thinks that I do not give to others what I expect for myself there is nothing I can do for them. If anyone doesn't want to be my friend because they think that I only care about myself then I am sorry that they do not know me and I cannot do anything for them. I serve a mighty God, and my heart breaks for others daily, and if anyone doesn't see me for who I really am, there nothing I can do to change it, but I can pray, and let God have my pain and ask him to guard my heart, mouth, and soul.

I may be an orphan in this world, but I am still God's daughter. I may feel so alone outside of my family, but I know that He is always with me even when I step off in the wrong direction.
I am married to an amazing man that will walk this life with me, hold my hand through it all, and take care of me when I am at my lowest. I have been given 3 amazing little people to raise and send out into the world. I have been entrusted with these lives and darnit I am going to make sure that I make the best of our lives.
