I have been enjoying a much needed spring break this week. Just loving this time to sort things out and get organized. I spent the day shopping today which ended with a Star.bucks coffee and muffin...yum! It's nice to get away from all the stress....so nice...actually...too nice. But when I go back next week...I'll only have 5 more weeks to go until summer break. Bring it on!
So, with that...I've also decided to take a break from blogging. I have no idea how long..... There's a part of me that just isn't sure I "belong" here anymore. There are certain things in my life I have to accept....and I need to live with this life God gave me and relish in the blessings I do have and not focus on what I don't have. Unfortunately, there are times this blog reminds me of the pain I've been so desperately trying to push away...I have to deal with the pain....find healing...and move on. It's just to easy to get caught up in it all and forget what I need to be concentrating on now (like finishing my master's degree this summer).
I want to finish with two last thoughts:
1) My parents will be celebrating 50 years of marriage this weekend! They are amazing people, I love them dearly and will forever be grateful to them for everything to do and continue doing for me and for my dh! I have been truly blessed with wonderful and supportive parents. They gave me a foundation of faith to build on...and a foundation for a wonderful marriage myself. 50 years...I'm in awe!!! I'm so excited to see my family this weekend...even some younger cousins I haven't seen since they were born. This is definitely a time for a big celebration! Amen?
2) I want to give out one big congratulations to all of my blogger friends who have been blessed with pregnancies recently! I can see God bestowing blessings on so many. He is so good!
With that...TTFN (ta-ta for now).
You were one of the first bloggers I read when I started reading the blogs! You will be sorely missed!!
ReplyDeleteHi J - I was thinking about you and praying for you at Adoration last night. I understand blog breaks - so very necessary sometimes. I hope you find the refreshment you need and the time to focus on the things you want to focus on. I am exited that you only have 5 weeks left - your 1st year of teaching, almost done!!! Way to GO!!
ReplyDeleteAlso that is awesome about your parents! What an inspiration. I hope you enjoy the rest of your spring break!
Well, I am going to miss you on here! I pray and hope that with the break you find all the peace and happiness that you deserve. Hopefully you won't be gone long, but no matter what you decide, I'll keep you in my prayers. :)
ReplyDeleteAnd Congrats to your parents! :)
Hope your blogging break is fruitful. Just a note to say I'm thinking about you!
