I never know where these blogs will lead...but I had a thought when I sat down this morning..."What do I feel about 2008?"....
I can't say that is was the worst year ever....and I can't say that it was the best year...it feels more like a middle/transit year.I experienced great transition...this year felt like the fly leaf page in a book. You know the blank page at the beginning of the book....that leads to the story, the chapter, the beginning...Yeah, this year felt like that...It felt like a pre-cursor, a preview...the start and perhaps the ending of something...some books actually have the blank page at the end...(not sure if it has another name if its at the end)
I changed some things to prepare for a healthier lifestyle....Auntie Mommie experienced more challenges in her body. I released my book (a long awaited journey to healing)...I received some backlash for pursuing what I felt God told me to do....I left a city I loved/new/became comfortable in to transition to Charlotte...I'm starting a new relationship with the Queen City...lots and lots of firsts!!
This year challenged me on many levels....some things dried up towards the end of the year...but as I approach 2009, I am turning the page...(that's not a cliche' it's the truth) Even though the FLY LEAF year appeared to have no words it said so much...taught me soo much..I gained so much...saw sooo much...grew sooo much. I'm turning the page...this page has an introduction, directions.....and more process!!!I'm open. I think I may start on book two Loyce. (LOL) It's time. Gonna start writing for my next record..2009 will have lots and lots of words....pictures....and color. I can't wait!!! Well, yes I can...:) With the words, pictures and color...comes even greater responsibility!!!
Happy Reading....within this chapter lies an historic plot, champion characters and life-changing segways...Don't put the BOOK DOWN!!!!
I love you more than you know,
Stacey
