And This Too Shall Pass

So I was encouraged by a friend to blog about the new journey in my life. As some of you may know within the last year my relationship status has  gone from dangerously in love to me,myself, and I. Well not really me, myself, and I. More like me, myself, and two kids. But to quote Forrest Gump, "...life is like a box of chocolates..." screw it, you know the rest.

So here I am 34, single, and attempting to go back to school. I've actually begun my training for my teacher's certification. Sometimes when I'm studying I think to myself, "I'm actually studying to be a teacher!" The thought is completely surreal because all my life I was told that I should teach. And my response was always the same, "Ugh, a teacher?! Teacher's are overworked and underpaid; I'll never be a teacher." Even after teaching Sunday school for two years I still ignored the calling on my life. And yet here I am. I'm convinced that this entire plot was preordained, and as much heartbreak I've been through, I would have never stepped out on faith and embark on the journey I'm now on had it not been for life being a cruel bitch.

So I'm here,nonetheless, and I'm excited to see where my new journey leads me. I hope your are too because I plan on filling you in from time to time about where life is taking me.

Peace and blessings.
