A Calling

My first blog…. well, here I go. I’ve been called to write a book. I have a few ideas on what that might be but am not sure. I’ve tried to forget this calling chalking it up to my own pride, (all Ph.D’s should write a book if you’re really smart), I’ll be famous, people will invite me to speak widely, and people will ask for my autograph! But I’ve discovered that the calling is not made up, it’s God and he will not let it drop.

They tell you writing a blog will help you focus. Today I am not focused but rather scattered and frustrated. I’m trying to figure out why I’m so damn driven. I am like a freight train no matter what I do. Chassati (my beautiful daughter) says I speed to the store for bread on a Saturday! I struggle with relaxing and finding time just to veg. Lately I have been practicing meditation and I think it’s helping. I also have been practicing mindfulness and making it a point to view and appreciate nature and the beauty around me. I’m studying the Enneagram to learn about my real self apposed to my personality which is mostly how your life experiences have formed you. I’m praying for guidance and have a genuine desire to chill for real!

Welcome to my journey!
