Rediscovering Ourselves

Hello loyal readers! Have you ever wonder what it would be like to be radically changed from how you are? Some would want it to be physical, others may want it to be situational, or while others may want it to be total transformation. I can tell you I was in the latter group, for sure! I wanted to be unrecognizable to when I would look into the mirror. What about you?

In my life’s journey, I realized that the essence of who I am was not what needed to be transformed. You may ask, what do you mean by that? I am referring that I had to dig in deeply within myself to rediscover who I truly was. I became a determined detective willing to go to the bottom of the truth and nothing but the truth.

Diligently and with determination discovered shockingly layers of lies camouflaging and covering my true self. I angrily pulled one by one the lies out destroying any traces of it. Enough was enough! My eyes began to see clearly what was under it all. A sense of wonder invaded my heart. Why?

Suddenly a new and wonderful person was staring with bewilderment back at me. Although she recognized me, I vaguely remembered her in my dreams at night. Yes, once again united to become my true self! I began to love who I am as a person. I have a corky sense of humor, love people, love to learn, care and compassionate with others. Those traits and values, I did not want to change at all.

What I have discovered, I want to share with those that want to live a life of joy, peace, and love to the fullest. I am not saying I have arrived there yet I am in a better place than yesterday, last week, and definitely last year. Where do you start for this new adventure? Joyfully and with a big smile, I will continue talking with you in the next blog!

“For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.” Ephesians 2:10

Peace, Love, and Joy!
