I'm 35 now

Yea, I'm excited about it. Milestones are usually occasions for significant change. It's a motif that's been present in many spheres this year. Personally, my life has changed and will continue to do so over the next year. Such is life. Really, I AM excited about it.

Just haven't blogged about it, or much else over the last couple of years. Haven't said much at all. What I have been fond of saying is how I used to be so profound. I just stopped talking, chatting, discussing, debating, sharing...caring, maybe. It shows. Does it ever show.

So, I'm 35 now. Thankful for the many blessings and ready to do MORE. BE more.

I've applied to be a Big Sister again. Haven't done this since college. I have room in my life to serve and I want a defining experience.

I'm joining my neighborhood association. Learning my 'hood continues to be a delightful experience and again, I'm feeling service-oriented.

What to learn, what to learn? I haven't chosen a topic/subject to pursue in this new year of life, but something will pique my interest. I've done dance, I've done language, I've done biblical study, I've done volunteer leadership....there's a slot in a class waiting for me to arrive.

I'm ix-naying those relationships that do not SERVE ME well. Those that take more than give. Those that dismiss rather than engage. More importantly, I'll build new relationships, in my new sphere of influence, and prayerfully these will sustain me not only in my 35th year, but beyond.

God
Sex
Men
Friends
Family
The challenges continue in balancing all of the above yet I'm thankful I have them to motivate me toward better living. I am excited about the possibilities in 35 and so look forward to what dreams and goals may come.....
