Faith in Limbo

Hello again.

My husband suggested that I follow up my previous blog with some 'witty pearls of wisdom.'

I'm hardly the poster girl for wit or wisdom but Bridget Jones was bang on the money when she said; "It is a truth universally acknowledged that when one part of your life starts going okay, another falls spectacularly to pieces."

How anyone sustains an overly-inflated ego in this world is amazing to me. My experience shows that when life tosses you a victory, gravity soon ensues and plonks you back in the sandbox.

After ticking off my final objective on my mental life 'to-do' list, the warm glow of achievement quickly cooled, as I was asked to shut the door on a project close to my heart.

I now find myself on a blank page. Admittedly, I'm more anxious than excited. There are so many question marks over the next few years of my life and I'd like to have a plan.

But I am a woman of faith and I know that I am in limbo for a reason.

However, when victory strikes next, whether it's an unexpected tax return, getting to cuddle a newborn puppy or landing a promotion, I am going to celebrate!

After all, it's the simple joys that carry us through life's valleys and give comfort when you stumble into unknown territory.

Here's to finding out what's around the corner - cheers!
