The moment I walked out of my last job I knew my life would change. I wasn't sure how but I knew things would be different. At first I struggled, I didn't know what to do with myself. I didn't know what would define who I was as a person. If somebody asked me what I did, what would I say? I do nothing? I wake up after 8, get my son ready for school, if the pilot is here we spend the day together. Doesn't sound very exciting, but to me its wonderful. The truth is I discovered that I could be a better wife and mom. I started to focus on spending time with God daily and reading His word. Just having a little bit each day reminds me of the person I want to be. I want to be loving and kind to the people I encounter. I want to have a happy family and a happy home. I want to find ways for people to wonder why I'm different, why am I so positive and how is it possible to have such an amazing marriage after 18 years? Its because of Jesus. That sounds too simple but the truth is my relationship with God has become deeper since I left work. And I've noticed because of that relationship, my relationship with my husband, my son, my friends, and the rest of my family have been better as well. I still consider myself a work in progress. I don't know what my next steps are but I want to be open to anything God has in store for me. The truth is leaving my job allowed me to become a better person. I no longer focus on negative co-workers or petty daily things that don't mean much in the grand scheme of life. I enjoy every relationship I have in my life. I'm thankful for the blessings my family has and I hope that I can share those with those around me.
