New Beginnings

As I await patiently to find out whether or not I will be relocating to Chicago, I am beginning to see my potential relocation as a new beginning. Lately I have felt bogged down by my life in the district and I believe a new state, new city, new surroundings will benefit my psyche. Sometimes it is imperative to start over; otherwise you can become so consumed by all the different things going on in your life that you lose perspective on what's really important. A new beginning is a way to start fresh, to leave the past in the past, to leave all the worries and discouraging things behind.

Since graduating from law school, I haven't had the best of luck and I am hoping a new place will bring new blessings and happiness. Of course, this will still require some effort and patience on my part, but I am looking forward to starting my new life. My new beginning isn't just a new place to live but it involves a new life. A life as a family, instead of just a single mother with a boyfriend. A life with the man I love and my beautiful children. These are the things that make a house a home and that will bring me the most joy in my new life.

A new beginning can start at anytime, one just has to have the will and patience to start over. If your old life isn't working and you aren't happy, it's time to start over. Put the fear aside and do something to make you happy. A new beginning doesn't necessarily have to be a physical thing, it can be completely mental. A new way of viewing the world, a new outlook on life; these are ways to have a new beginning. Most people want to start over or fresh in their lives at some point, and they should. This is the only life we have, so live it to the fullest. Don't let fear stop you. I am ready to embrace my new life and hopefully something wonderful will come from it. Being positive goes a long way. It is the first step in making a change. Go ahead, try it, and I guarantee you wont regret it. Until next time.....peace!!!!!
