Life is a journey, let's begin

I am nobody special and somebody special.

I'm a woman, wife, mom, caregiver, daughter, sister, friend who lives in Oregon on a farm in a forest.

I'm a wonderfully made, perfectly assembled, greatly designed child of God.

I am loved by many and disliked by many but intriguing to most.

I am authentic. I don't do fake or fluff. I think deeply about everything that intrigues me. I don't care much for things that don't.

This blog will simply be my intriguing perspectives on display. I welcome topics and discussion. I am a student of life. I believe in being better today than I was yesterday and that I get to define what better means. I live with what I call a "deathbed perspective"....if I were to be laying on my deathbed would I be happy with where I am in life, who I am, what I've done? I strive for my answers  to all be YES! That doesn't mean that I've always been good, or right, or the best, or anything like that. I've made mistakes everywhere throughout life like we all have but I've always done the best I could with the tools I had at the time. That last part of the sentence is the key.

I plan to share stories of my life transitions and experiences as well as simple ramblings of interest or frustration. This is a journey and I'm writing about mine.
