Challenge Accepted

It's back!

I know that this blog seems familiar. It's true. I deleted my formal blog. I did it because of something personal and private that God was teaching me. I also did it because I didn't like having 2 separate google accounts, and I wanted my blog and my email to coincide. I also wanted to take the time to fool around with my layouts. I like it better now.

Finally, I had hoped to have a better understanding of where my life was going when I reopened this. But I don't. Although I've been in interviews (my husband and I both) and there are possibilities looking pretty bright, we still are at the mercy of many companies and schools. Of course, we are in the hands of God....and I am praying everyday for the faith to remember that God's hands will not squash us like bugs. lol.

Today I'm 24, and I have no control over what kind of year it will be. However, I CHOOSE to love life despite its pivotal circumstances and challenges.

Along with that choice, I've given myself a few more challenges.

I want to start a "Picture a Day" challenge for a year. Every day I will take a picture and then I will upload it to facebook as quickly as possible. Every week I will try to post a collage of my pictures on here as well.

There's another challenge I'm taking on. For now, I'm labeling it "Lookin' Good!" Maybe you've already got it figured out. Maybe not. If the picture's still a little fuzzy, then good, and stay tuned for more clues.

These are the only challenges I can control right now in my current living circumstances. But the main challenge I'm accepting this year is to choose to love and choose joy. Happiness is a reaction but love and joy are ways of life. So here we go.
