Life can throw curve balls and sometimes it feels like you’ve caught the ball in the head one too many times. I get it. But you know, those are just moments and life… Painful things have happened to us all. Sometimes a random thought of the painful occurrence is like getting a sharp whiff of ammonia—you wince, you remember, you feel it in your throat. Look at you with your capable self. The years have taught you quite a bit. You get it. At least, that’s how others look at it. They say it’s all about the journey. The sometimes maddening, confusing, frightening, interesting journey that moves you from Point A to Point B in your life. Newness. Walking into a cold room. Change. Proving yourself to new people. These things will never go away. How do you boost your self confidence in new situations when you may not know the lay of the land or the people that inhabit it? I glanced through Facebook this morning and it appears that all of my friends are curing cancer, building monuments and teaching children to read. Oh. “…and you know how God watches out for children and fools,” the woman said as if there was nothing truer, no action more perfect or expected than that one. I have never lost the understanding I had as a 2 year old little girl that mommy and daddy would always love me no matter what…I carry it with me, whether I’m aware of it or not. It grants me freedoms, real or imagined, as I walk into new situations and meet new people. Mississippi is the only place where a man can call me *little lady* and I won’t give him the stink eye. It took awhile though. |
