Enough

Courtesy of FreeDigitalPhotos.net


I have been on a journey of sorts.  A personal journey.  A spiritual, emotional, mental journey.

See, my life is not perfect.

I know, it's a huge shock to everyone.  It's true.

I got myself worked into this frenzy that I had to be perfect in order to present....present what?  Some image to the blogosphere that doesn't exist.

I know, I know.  Some people are out there creating beautiful things and blogging about it every day, it seems.  What am I creating?

I had to stop blogging.  It was too much.  I wanted to think of these wonderful things to say and all that was happening was that I was talking myself out of wonderfulness.

I want to be real.  I want to be present.  I want people to care enough to come back to the blog...no...that's not it...

I want people to be impacted enough to come back to the blog.

I started psycho-analyzing it.  I started to worry, and here are my worries:

If I don't give them some solution to some issue in their lives, they won't read it.

If I don't have some fabulous photograph of whatever I'm talking about, they won't come back.

If I expose too many flaws, they won't put stock in what I have to say.


Do you get where my mind has been?  And then, through the miracles that God works, He led to me to see the truth:

I am enough.

What I have to offer is good.

It might not be the best, the most beautiful, or the smartest.

But someone needs to hear it.

Someone's life will change because I took a chance.

And that is enough.


Come back tomorrow (or the next day) to read about why being a mom is "enough" for a lifetime's work.

I love you, each and every one.
