Many of us still don't know what we want to be when we grow up. Where are you? Are you in need of a lifestyle change, career change or both? Are you aware that you can enjoy your work and all that you do in a day?

Recently I did a self evaluation. I pretended there were not bills, no children, no husband or extended family. I then made a complete list of talents that come naturally, of hobbies that I'm rarely too tired to do.

Because we must re-enter reality, I made another list of realistic steps I could take in my current season of life that would help me reach my goals for tomorrow and beyond. Get excited about waking up in the morning. Use your God given gifts and talents daily to experience total peace, joy ad fulfillment as a woman.

Ephesians 5(15) Be very careful, then, how you live - not as unwise, but as wise, making the most of every opportunity.

I did the same thing in July of this year-a self evaluation. Plus, a pastor made a comment that stuck with me. My life is my life, regardless of husband, children, parents. He used it in relation to our personal relationships with Jesus. It made me rethink a whole lot of stuff, and it got me moving again. I will continue to press on. Now I know that there are many of us pressing on. By the way, how do you do the word count thing? I usually just count it out by hand when needed. Thanks! Beth-what I mean is,is it a special thing, or does every computer have it?
