My first video diary.

http://youtu.be/NXDxGQKhPz4

Life is never static for me, things change and change isn't always easy. Each day brings pain of all kinds. I don't know what tomorrow will bring, I don't know what the next hour will bring. I am full of emotion. Laughter can be followed by tears. Tears can be followed by an overflowing love or a feeling of panic or regret.

When I feel this way, the watchword is slow. I will move slowly through my thoughts, and through my changes. I will make decsions in my life that benefit me, that help me grow as a person, and as a role model to my child. She may be 19 but she still looks to me to be the adult that she may one day become.

I need to start living an honest and authentic life. I need to be true to myself, I need to live openly and honestly. And mostly, for my own sanity, I need to live in a way that allows me to speak for myself and hope that my words and actions continue to inspire the community I live in.

Dana,
I love you more that words could ever express. I love you more that chocolate, but you have put that to the test this week.
Once I finish the chocolate, which will be any minute now, I won't have to think about that anymore, and you will be my obvious choice again.
thank you for being the most lovely, thoughtful, amazing person to ever drool on my couch.
So there right back atcha!

David,
I was posting on my client's faith based facebook page today about turing down the volume and listening to the whisper. Sometimes I think that when we push aside the noise, the smallest voice, or that unlikely voice is the one that comes through so clearly and we are so surprised we never heard it before. That is what I am thankful for this week, that voice I found that is so obviously a voice that spends equal time talking and is attached to ears that truly listen.

Dear Jules,

Love this. Real and gritty and honest. Like your thought about the toolbox. A mentor of mine once said "I try to listen to everybody because I never know who God chose to speak to me today." Isn't that cool?

I'm glad God chose you to speak to me today.

David
