thank you for posting this ... it's a conformation as sorts... my t has been trying to get me to journal again for awhile... i haven't been able to... it make things too real for me... journaling has been a major sorce of healing for me and is something that i usually love to do... i stopped about 9 months ago... he asked me to try again... so i reflected on the past year... and tried to see the whole picture and not to just look at the individual crises... and see where the crisis lead me and what growth if any i found... i know i am not making any sense...

The Lord has given me a few goals for this year… right now they seem impossible but I am going to try and trusts the Lord that if he is leading he will help me follow through.

• Take care of myself. Let my yes be yes and my no be no. To stand up for what I need even if it means making others unhappy.
• Not to let all the clutter stop me from dealing with the issues that stand between me and healing.
• To face my fears and not hide in the closet or under the blankets… it didn’t work before and it isn’t working now. No more secrets.

I know that these goals aren’t going to be easy and won’t happen right away, but I am going to try and I am going to need to trust the people the Lord has placed in my life to help me get there.

i am already failing at more then one goal... but, i know that these are things i want for myself... just having trouble finding my path.
