Real talk? I’m still trying to figure this thing out…

What thing you may be asking? Life. Healthy relationships. Life with freedom. Adapting to the life I’ve been given. Deep, I know. In all honesty, I think we ALL get so used to operating the way we do because we may not be expecting things to change…sound familiar?

I’m just saying that life can be more than what you expect. In fact, if you don’t expect more- you’ve settled. You’ve chosen to stay inside on a rainy day. You’ve chosen to close your eyes during the movie. You’ve chosen to turn the radio up instead of listening to the leaves fall. Well, okay there isn’t anything wrong with turning the radio up! But you get the point. If you never know or even begin to think life could be lived any differently- then how will you know? That’s where hope comes in.

All my life I’ve been hanging onto hope and sitting in grace. Somehow finding something to look forward to is necessary. It’s helpful and keeps the idea of NOW from completely overwhelming us into a humdrum way of life.

If you’re sitting there reading this thinking that maybe you’ve settled- even just a little bit? It’s time to step out of the cave of comfort. Try something new! Learn what you like and what you don’t! You got this! Go inspire hope in someone today, but start with YOU.
