BEGINNING TO BE ME

 

I don’t know if I have found my voice or if my voice has developed over the years, I think it is the latter. I have the same desires today as I did at 20; I love the same activities today as I did at forty, the difference is I feel free to do it my way.

I cannot remember a time in my life in which people wanted me to do things a different way. People have always liked me, accept for the ones that didn’t, they just wanted me to be more like them. I am different, I have always been different and I don’t want to change.

Today, maybe it was yesterday, or perhaps it was last month I don’t know, but, I am beginning to be me. I am beginning to be more of me and there will be people who will not like it. The main thing about beginning to be me is knowing that I just won’t get it right- most of the time.

I am OK with not being perfect just as long as I have perfect love. I love writing, sewing, and helping the people I love and I get a kick out of helping strangers. 

I love God. This statement deserves its’ own sentence and paragraph because it is the foundation of my beginning. For years I was an undercover God only person but now it is my badge of honor and I look forward to people rejecting me because I have begun to be bold about who I am.
