Just 5 minutes

Its crazy how much a 5 minute conversation with someone who cares can change your whole day around.  Today all the anxiety about so many different things hit me flat in the face at the same time and the worst part was there was no one around to talk it out with.  For whatever reason a shoe triggered something in me to call a good friend who I haven't talked to since I was last home. We didn't really talk about anything too intense but she made me laugh and just the sound of a familiar voice eased my nerves. Sometimes you just need to not be by yourself. Even if it is just for 5 minutes. :-)

How many times

Can I have the same dream before it comes true? My goodness! I have had some variation of this same dream on and off for the past few weeks. 

Is my brain trying to tell me something?  

Clarity

I feel that my mind is the clearest when I run. Even writing that makes me laugh. Growing up running was something I did strictly to adhere to the high school girl standards but never really enjoyed it- in fact I dreaded it.

Now, running is where life makes the most sense. Maybe it is because I can't get too deep into something. My heavy breathing and pounding heart only allows me to look at things from the surface. I can't psycho-analyze life and pick apart each little detail.

 Everything is more simple. I like it that way.

one of those nights

Tonight....My head hurts from thinking too much.

I need to learn to let things go and they will happen how they are supposed to.



In the end its not even up to me....


Good night.

Sometimes life surprises you

As part of lent I am actively trying to do at least one out of my way "good" thing a day that goes beyond holding the door for someone. You know, something that takes a little effort.

Well for today's thing I called an old friend who I knew has been going through some tough times but his load was getting too heavy for me to carry so I have kinda been blowing him off these past few weeks.  After prepping myself with some inspirational advice to pass on, I called him.... but as I hung up the phone I found myself to be the one that was inspired. 

As I sit here I am realizing that maybe the purpose of that call wasn't really what I thought....

well if this doesn't melt your heart
