Why I’m Taking Life with Chances

This is not where I thought I would be at 47, almost 48 years old.

But I’m not sure I ever truly knew where I wanted to be.

I’ve never been one to conform. I floated through life hoping I would eventually fall into something. And when I did — when, to some, I had a great life — I made the decision to walk away from it all.

I’ve made impulse decisions without thinking them all the way through.

Now here I sit — lost, questioning everything, uncertain about almost all of it, and sometimes feeling a bit hopeless.

I’ve been wanting to throw my hat into this space for some time. Partly as an outlet. Partly to feel less alone. And maybe — just maybe — to remind myself that this journey isn’t meant to be walked in isolation.

If you’re here, perhaps you’re figuring things out too.

    Sometimes I wonder if we’re ever truly lost. I imagine life as walking through the woods – there are so many pathways we can take while we’re on our journey through. And sometimes we’re called to step off that path and wonder into the woods – using only our hearts as the compass. Maybe it’s to find ourselves again, to peel back another layer, or maybe to embark on an adventure. Thank you for inviting us to your journey. You’re never alone. Love you!
