I spent the last weekend with family in Atlanta, Georgia celebrating that my cousin will soon be a new mom! It was such a great time with family. During the visit there were numerous mentions of my cousins blog that shares the adventures of transitioning into motherhood. I felt suddenly motivated and reminded of my blog that I started almost two years ago. I feel continuing and making more of an effort in my blogging adventures could really be fun. I'm sure my blogging skills will never compare to my cousins great ways of sharing stories with her audience but I'll at least use this as a way of sharing thoughts and stories that I really wanted to do over the past year.
I left you all off with my last post talking about the upcoming adventures of moving to a new city all the way across the country. Well that adventure turned out to be one of the best decisions I've ever made. I spent a year volunteering at a non-profit and building community with a house of strangers. The life lessons learned could never be replicated.
As I've transitioned into a thing we like to call 'real life' and out of a community, it's been a bit of a struggle to find that connection with people in which I valued so very much over that year.
One theme I have really been in 'pursuit' of has been that community. Those people I can surround myself with weekly or daily; those that really challenge someone to grow and become a better person. I know through life communities come and go (just as people do) but I continually hope there's one in my life.
Until next time...
