its a new day!

my life has been flipped over and over again. these past two weeks, have felt like an entire lifetime! i am stunned everyday at the changes that i am seeing in my life. i have never smiled this much ever! i walk around singing, and i laugh and i hug people, and it brings me joy and not pain. i feel like a weight has been removed from my body, i feel light and free and happy. i enjoy being around people, and smile when they are near. saturday, i had "my sherwood kids" over to hang out, and they filled my home and my heart with joy and laughter. they brighten my soul and i am forever grateful for my week in "the nature" when i got to be blessed by them. and then of course there is janice, oh the things that she is teaching me! she is so patient and gentle and kind and loving. i feel like fear is not ruling my life. on saturday, there was a full moon, and i usually tend to stare a bit at that moon, but this past saturday, not even once did i glance at it. i was not even aware that this occured until the morning, when i realized that it was sunday, and that i had made it through saturday night. janice has taught me to laugh, and to be bold, to be intentional in prayer, to love, and to live. i am so grateful to god, that he waited for me to be ready, and that he then provided a person to fit my needs. it is a new day, a new beginning, and a new life. oh....i get to see mel and kelly on friday! and i cannot wait to give mel a hug and see her and talk with her and be with her. i am most excited to renew friendships with people that have brought me this far in my journey, but to be able to really connect with them, to love them like they had loved me for so long. friday should be awesome!
