Hello Out There, Anyone There .... The Ride Begins Again, Jump On

Life is unpredictable and full of twists and turns. Additionally, it often times pulls me away from writing and reflecting on life and so many other things. A year and a half later almost, I decide to pick up writing, reflecting, and sharing once again. I know many have disappeared from the roller coaster of a ride my blog provides and no I cannot promise any more than in the past to be consistent and keep things going. I encourage you to come along for the ride and hopefully it will not be as bumpy or stalled as in the past.  

Where am I…
- On a new path that focuses more on providing my soul and life the balance it seeks.
- Seeking ways to share my love of God and others through work, church, fellowship, community, and other activities.
- Finding opportunities to provide service to those who are in need of love and caring support.
- Discovering ways to share my faith, leadership, and cultural awareness with others young and old alike.
- Focusing on my health to find a balanced diet and nutrition plan and to become physically fit.  

Goals…
- Develop a healthy balanced intake of food and vitamins to counter internal body issues and lose weight.
- Become more physical active and fit by enjoying the outdoors and the creation that God has made.
- Refocus on what really matters my faith in the loving Lord and His intentions for all aspects of my life.
- Reach out to friends and family and letting them know how much they mean to me.
- Minimize the watching of TV and movies.
- Reading and writing about leadership, faith, culture, and more.

Support & Encouragement…
So many of you have and continue to make a difference in my life, THANK YOU!
- Your strength to continue on through trying times.
- Your perseverance and dedication to training and being physically fit.
- Your faith in God and sharing of that faith.
- Your witness as followers of Christ and serving others.
- The friendship you provide and the opportunities to share in your journeys.

Prayer Requests…
  - The strength to persevere and find a diet that will benefit me and provide the nutrients to straighten out my body.
- The encouragement to start slow and steadily work towards greater physical fitness and loss of weight.
- The power to stand strong and take ahold of my faith and share my love of God with others.
- The inspiration to step out of my comfort zone and to seek and participate in opportunities to share my talents with young and old alike within the church.
- The patience and ears to listen to God’s calling in my personal and vocational life.

Thanks for taking the time to read the start of this new roller coaster in life! It is great to be back and I hope you stick around.
