Take a deep breath. Remember why you're doing this. Remember who should get the glory. And then move forward one step at a time.<BR/><BR/>Or come hide out at my house. :-)HeyJuleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07585379706044828864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14664095.post-65074485637136430902007-11-09T08:06:00.000-05:002007-11-09T08:06:00.000-05:00This is the life you say you are electing to embra...This is the life you say you are electing to embrace: "I will not be in control of much of it; I will be expected to submit obediently to a lot of things I don't especially like or disagree with. I'll have less leverage as a professed sister than I have now." <BR/><BR/>I suspect you are coming to grips with the very real loss of freedom and individuality. <BR/><BR/>You well know if it does not work out it is no failure to say enough and change your path of travel. Sometimes the journey is more interesting than the destination. <BR/><BR/>There's nothing wrong with doubt. Ultimately it is you that has to be pleased with what you do. <BR/><BR/>I think of the company slogan joke: "We're not happy until you're not happy!" <BR/><BR/>It does not have to be that way.

My goal is to be able to accept what life offers and find that it is sufficient. I have a feeling that I'll always have something to work towards.<BR/><BR/>I'm guessing that the next few weeks won't be easy for you. But, I'm also guessing that it'll all work out. Of course, that's easy for me to say - it's you that's dealing with it.<BR/><BR/>You're in my prayers...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
