Inspired

There are some places in this world where you cannot help but be inspired.

For me, being on or near any body of water sets my mind at peace and send relaxed waves through my body.  No matter my moods or thoughts before, viewing the crashing waves will bring my  mind to peace and my body to rest.

While walking along a beach on the Strait of Juan de Fuca this summer thoughts about how transformed I felt floated through my mind as my eyes scanned the sand for treasures to point out to my children.  Then I saw this, a perfect smooth rock resting in the sand…

The words took a moment to register, a moment more to smile at the thought of someone writing the perfect words just for me at that moment.  At least that’s how I felt.

I AM exactly where I need to be at this moment of my life—I’ve let go of the stresses associated with my health.  I’ve come to terms with my
weight loss struggles and triumphs.

I am in a place where I do not allow the outside world to form me, I have worked hard to transform myself and to accept thoughts that may have been foreign to me at one point.

I feel as if I am a new person.  A person transformed and born anew.

My life changing journey has taken me places, has introduced me to people and has reshaped my mind…and I am grateful to still be here, to be able to continue this journey and others.  To be able to say that I’m changing my own little world…starting with me, but touching all those around me and maybe encouraging someone else to take their own journey toward change.

I still find myself posting, thinking and writing more about my crafty side…but every now and then I come back here to share the more personal side of me….

I hope that todays day brings something inspiring into your life…or at least makes you smile as you continue on the path of your own journey.
