Sometimes it isn’t what life brings, it’s why it brings
them. When I was 34 I enjoyed/hated,
loved/loathed serial dating and the excitement/loneliness it brought. Some days I liked the freedom other
days I played country singer writing the worlds saddest love songs. As life happens, when you let it happen
and least expect it, Elle pops into view.
One date, one moment - Sometimes that’s all you need. I won’t describe the best moments in my
life afterwards but know she moved in after 3 months and got preggers at
7. In between there I lost a brother,
which I look at my son now as the most beautiful gift he had a hand in divine
making.
In just over the 2 years that have past, life has charmed me
for certain. It got me thinking
why life is the way it is. Is our
lives really one long film that destiny, determination and patient persistence
unfold into the life you have finally been waiting for? I‘m positive we’ll all have our moments
to shine and shake the world around us to do great things. But now I’m even more certain that
choosing to live a life of giving and gratefulness while willingly to enjoy
uncomfortable circumstances makes for opportunities and empowerment.
A lot can happen in a little amount of time if you let it.
