Back to basics....

Lately I've been thinking a lot about what direction I want to take my life in...career wise.  Trying to figure out my so called "passion" has been a point of contention for me most of my adult life.  It's something I struggle with and now that I'm a newlywed I find that I'm putting more pressure on myself than necessary.  Life has enough drama so I figured I'd step back, take a breath, and just do something for me, hence getting back to blogging.

I've never read an O Magazine in my life but this month the cover title leapt out at me like a deer in head lights...."What's Your True Calling? An Easy Does It Guide to Finding (and Fulfilling) Your Life's Purpose" It was like Oprah herself and written this issue just for me...there are a lot of interesting stories and helpful articles in regards to trying to figure out what it is we are meant to do with our time on this planet.  Reading other people's struggles and successes in eventually reaching their true calling made me feel more at ease.

My favorite quote from this dedicated magazine issue is...

"I believe that people should do what they loved to do when they were 10 - the age before you start caring what others think." -Joy Behar


At the end of the day I just want to be happy and stay connected with the people who matter most in my life so I think I'll save the stress of figuring "me" out for another day! 

Hope you come back and check in on my random blog from time to time....goodnight! :-)
