IN 2008 I started a blog and for two years had over 114 entries. I loved sharing what I was learning as at that time my career as a real estate agent was beginning to flourish, I was writing my book Walks with Mr. Smith, and my wife and I were adopting our little girl adding to our already home of 3 boys. As I sit here typing these words 14 years later much has changed in my life and most of that change has happened inside of me and with those changes it has inspired me to want to share again. Not to get into too much detail but fighting an addiction for 35 years, being 4 years free from the addiction, experiencing freedom finally from what held you in bondage, brings me to a different place. . a different perspective. . .a new desire. . . a new focus.
This blog will be a new focus. It will not be about finding happiness or success as often the search for those lead us down wrong paths. It will instead be a honest and raw look on life, our journey through it, and shifting our desire from feeling "better" to instead knowing God more intimately loving Him and others well through the challenges that life brings. It is amazing what a "shift in focus", a new perspective, a new understanding, a new desire, a refining or "surgery" of our heart can have in us if we are open to feel what needs to be felt, learn what needs to be learned, and go deep into the inner being of our soul.
So. . . let's begin :)
***I will be posting no less than two times per week. Could be more :) ***
