A Crisis No More

A Crisis No More

Tryon, NC. Finally getting settled. A newly renovated house in a new place, a new life. So what does the future hold? What have I learned to prepare me for this new adventure in life?

Over the last 9 months, I have moved 2 households, broken my right arm, visited 5 new countries, completely gutted a house, started and sadly ended a relationship and spent a lot of time creating one crisis after another. Hard to admit, but I have quickly become the queen of crisis!

Yet now, things that seemed so important just months ago have faded into the background as inconsequential in the scheme of life. But damn, they seemed so important while in the heat of the moment! And doesn’t a crisis show everyone how critical my stuff is compared to theirs?

Well, enough. After all, a crisis is rarely a positive experience (especially one you manufacture) and they always seem to pass. So back to blogging about falling in love with life, one fascination at a time; back to living with a sense of gratitude, learning new things (dancing is #1) and just looking down my very cool driveway. No crisis ahead, just a new day with unlimited possibilities. And how nice to have relinquished my queen of crisis role. Hopefully forever!
