A little more trust…a little less control

New day, new thoughts. I went for my morning walk down by the water today. There was such a sweet scent in the air…it smelled like Christmas. I don’t know how else to describe it. It’s the scent of burning wood and fresh baked cookies combined and it was everywhere I walked. It made me smile. Maybe it’s a reminder that life can be so sweet…or maybe I’m having a stroke…kidding..

I am learning to let go and trust God. I get wrapped up in the new age belief that we create our lives, and while there is some truth to that, there are so many things that are beyond our control. It’s those things that are beyond our control that I’m learning to accept. One thing in particular, love. I have been divorced for 10 years. Yes, I’ve dated here and there, but I’m ready to remarry. I want another shot at this marriage thing. I am finally learning not to pick the wrong men. I usually run with who I am physically attracted to the most but I have learned that picking a partner goes way beyond the superficial aspect. I am looking for something much deeper this time.
