The Return of Me in 2010

Wow. Its been about a month since my original post and so many things have happened. I can already see the changes happening in my life and it is an adventure I look forward to each day.

First, the motivation was found. I finally became proactive in the job search and it paid off (literally). I interviewed with American Medical Technologies on a Thursday morning and had a job with them by the afternoon which began on a Monday. Tomorrow will complete two weeks of my new job and I am enjoying it thus far. I'm still learning a lot, but I think it is something I can do and do well.

Second, I finally made it back to church. In the last couple weeks the Lord has taught me a lot. He has put someone in my life that challenges me to be better. I am blessed to have a new friend who knows my faults and loves me in spite of them. It is encouraging to hear and see what the Lord does in her life as it blesses my life immensely. I haven't been in a position to be an example to the youth in a long time, but I am finally getting there again. God used my basketball girls to show me this. He used them to teach me even more patience because if you know them, you know it is needed in huge amounts. He used them to show me a lot and because of that I will always love my girls. They have had a huge impact on me that I didn't know was possible from a bunch of high school kids. I am excited to watch them grow into beautiful women of Christ and I hope and pray that I will be able to coach again next year.

Third, well, there really isn't a third for this post, but I think there is a rule about having no less than 3 points, but what do I know?

So this is the New Year....

2010 is here, obviously since it is already January 13th. From the 13 days that have passed, I know it is a good year. In my life there will be changes and there will be things that stay the same. I'm not really one for New Year's Resolutions because I feel like they are just a way of setting yourself up for disappointment. However, I do know that I will make changes. In 2009 I learned that I don't really know what I want to do and I was complacent in sitting around doing nothing while trying to figure that out. No more. I still don't know what I want to do with my life, but I know that I am going to do something else until I figure it out. I am going to be proactive in making things happen and not just sit around waiting for it to fall into my lap. I will be the master of my own destiny so to speak. In 2009 I found a little more of who I want to be and keeping with that trend, in 2010 I plan on discovering more and growing. Who says we have to be one thing? I plan to be many things and do many things this year. Welcome 2010, and thank you for the new beginning.
