thankful.

This week has been a whirlwind at work and all in all way more stressful than it should have been.

However, through it all there were those 'moments' that reminded me why I got into this in the first place. And even though I feel like I got run over by a truck- I cant help but to be thankful for this job and that these people let me into their lives everyday.

 They allow me to be a part of their crazy, dramatic, babydaddy life. They let me go through each fear, anxiety, and heart break right along with them as well as those moments of bliss, excitement and pure joy.

Its actually an emotional roller coaster with this crew.... and I am slowing realizing that I don't think I would have it any other way.

mixed emotions

Growing up is hard. Its like we are stuck in this weird in between space right now.

I look ahead and I get giddy with excitement and hope for the future. At the same time though I look behind me and see myself loosing grasp of the younger version of myself and that stings.  I feel torn between joy and sadness.  Between newness and comfort.  Between adventure and home.  Between west and east. It is just a weird spot to be in and even as I write this I really do not know how I feel about everything. My own thoughts contradict each other leaving my mind and heart to battle it out.

 I know change is good and new starts are good and sometimes they feel exactly that- good. But then other times the good is tainted with memories and smells and words from a younger life... and leaving that behind is what is hard.

 But that's what people say life is. I just wish I was better at dealing with it and trusting in the process and in His plan.
