"When you do something from your soul...

you feel a river moving in you, a joy." - Broken Open

North Carolina is for my soul!

I think that God blesses us with moments when we begin to see things falling into place. When life seems to be unraveling around you, but at the core of you there is a feeling of peace. Most of the questions you are dying to know are not understood and to the outside world life looks complicated, but it is not.

Today I felt this. A renewal. A re-charging of some sort. Yesterday I was hit pretty hard with the complicated nature of my perfectionist's ways. I started worrying over finding a job, making it in this world and began to forget.

But this evening...dang. As I finished the last of my dinner, I stared out the window and was romanced. Perfectly still water, a serene golf course, a setting sun. Could life get much better? I do not think so!

But it did.. I stepped outside and felt alive. I walked along the golf course path and was startled by the feeling of home I felt deep in my soul. This is it. The feeling that I have not felt in years was back. Tall Green trees, amazing weather, and a perfect walk.

This is it. I have been dreaming about moving to this place for a year now and I am finally here. I may not have a job and I may have no idea what tomorrow holds, but I do know one thing for sure. God is in control. I feel Him all around me and in this time of unknowing, I am comforted.

I am joyful and am so excited for the prospect of tomorrow. It is not a job hunt anymore...it is a opportunity for me to learn and grow. A chance for me to make it on my own and to prove that dreams can come true.

North Carolina is my dream and I am living it!
