It has been a while since I last wrote something.
Lately, with this new year upon us, I have really got myself to thinking. I think my least favorite question of all time is, "Is there anything you regret?" I finally have come up with an answer to this, yes. Here's just a few:
- I regret the times that I thought one person was more important than others.
- I regret letting my stubbornness get in the way of me.
- I regret not keeping in touch with some people and letting those relationship diminish.
- I regret not fully allowing myself to be me.
- I regret not calling more.
With this new year in place I realize it is a time to start anew, even though each and every day we are offered this same opportunity. But I jumped on the bandwagon and decided that New Year means new goals, and a new look on the way things are. I have been feeling really down on myself for these regrets. Thinking if only I did this or that things would be different. BUT that is exactly it, they would be different. I wouldn't be as happy as I am right now. I may not have C by my side. I may not have E in our lives. But you see without those 'regrets' I wouldn't be pushing myself now, I wouldn't be formed into who I am today due to those 'regrets.'
Here is to the new year, with new goals, and new ideas. Here's to letting our actions and distractions form us into the people that the Lord has called us to be and is forming us to be. Here's to twenty-fourteen.
