My response to that question is, “You go find it!”  I have been struggling for a while with the inability to accomplish some of my goals.  This is due in part to circumstances, but also to personal mindset and discipline.

IMG_0368I did all I could regarding the circumstances, but still struggled.   You see, I am generally a happy person and have been blessed with an overall positive outlook.  However, I was allowing myself to focus more on the less-than-preferred situations and seeing too much of the negative.

After several weeks of trying to push through, I realized I was not making progress and actually feeling worse.  When I find myself feeling uneasy, I know it is time to change something.  A good friend in the Huntsville area posted on facebook an invitation to a tea party with her ladies’ group.  That sounded like just the temporary change I needed!

Although I couldn’t get there in time for the tea party, I was able to enjoy a brief overnight stay with her and her family.  Those heart-to-heart conversations with someone you don’t get to see often are so refreshing!

Not only did I enjoy good fellowship; the scenery was quite uplifting as well!  The backdrop of mountains with the freshly green trees against the beautiful blue sky was amazing.   The landscape on the side of the mountain on their property is so pretty and peaceful.

My drive home was quite enjoyable.   I felt refreshed and joyful after a great visit.  I also made the decision to prioritize scheduling regular time with friends.

What change can you make in your life to get what you need?  Make it a priority so you can live . . . your life to the fullest!
