Free at last

It's been a while since I've posted a blog ... but I'm back. I took a few months off from writing while my year of trials ended. It has ended on a good note and my life is progressing forward. Needless to say, I'm thrilled.

I have very little stress these days. It's a freeing experience to let go. A month or so ago, I gave everything in my life to God. I've been a Christian for years but in the last few years have tried to fix everything myself. The last year was one of the most difficult times in my life. I had no idea where I'd end up or how I'd get there.

This time, I truly let go and it was then my life began to get better. I didn't spend my day worrying about being unemployed, instead I gained a second wind and was more persistant in my search. My love life had become confusing, and now it's inline with what I desire with good people in my life. I'm dating a couple of people but I let one person in particular back into my life. It's not a serious relationship but instead is enjoyable. We're just relaxed and are enjoying each other's company. Then mid-January, I interviewed for a job that I wanted badly. I now have that job, and it's a job I got on my own, by my experience. They weren't talked into hiring me, instead they wanted me. That's such a good feeling.

I now look forward to each day and to what God has in store for the rest of my life. The painful feelings from last year are receeding so that I don't think about it much. Now I have a feeling of peace and freedom. I pray for blessings for my friends and I thank God for each of you.
