still running...

i have stuck with the couch to 5k running plan and i have come so far.  on tuesday i ran for 20 straight minutes!  my progress has been so encouraging and i am really starting to enjoy the challenge.  my first 5k is next wednesday!  

running has been a great escape from life.  blowing away the assumed limitations that i have put on myself has shown me how strong i really am.  you don't really know how far you can go until you go the distance.

change in the making

change in the making

i am sore.

my muscles are aching.  mostly from a combination of camping, wakeboarding and kayaking, but even deeper than that...my heart aches.  it yearns for the things i don't have and the loss of a dream.

i thought things would look different.  i thought i might be devastated.  i counted on a certain support team, but instead received peace from the only one who can grant peace.

i don't know where to go from here but i don't feel lost.

life.

well hello there...it has been awhile.  so much is changing and i have been overwhelmed with the monstrosity that is my life.  i've come to realize that i don't want to write light, fluffy stuff if that is not how the days are going.  i am spending most of my time filling my every moment with things to do or checking out for a few hours by doing senseless stuff like tv and reading.  i don't feel strong enough to face things so i have resisted blogging about them as well.  once you put your thoughts into words it makes them seem a little bit more real and that scares me.

a miracle would be really nice right about now.
