Encouragement Today and Motivation Monday
As we begin a new week take the time to remember these simple words,
“In today’s rush we all think too much, seek too much, want too much and forget about the joy of just Being.” Eckhart Tolle
Do not get so lost in the hurried up hustle and bustle of the week that you forget the power of being “just you” and remaining physically and emotionally present in your own life. Do not get so lost in the mundaneness of the week that when you drop your kids off at school or at the daycare that you forget to engage with them at an emotional level. Get down on their level and give them an extra meaningful hug, one they feel emotionally.
When you leave your spouse be sure to connect with them at a level that made them love you initially.
When you go to work, do not get lost in the job politics instead stand taller than all of that. Stand true to who you are, even if that means some people stand back and question who you are.
My challenge to you this week is to remember who “you are” and be true to yourself this week. Do not get so busy this week that you forget to just be “you”.
Have a wonderful week!

I am a wife, mom, and daughter. I have served in the United States Army, gone to college, and received a Batchelor's Degree in Criminology. I married my husband when he was on active duty in the United States Army so I have the unique knowledge of what it is like to be on both sides of a Military uniform. I have been a wife for a lot longer than when I was in the Army.
While we were stationed in Germany, my daughter, who is 23 years old now was born and I chose to put my career on hold to be a mom and eventually a homeschool mom.
The past 15 years have been wrought with many struggles for various reasons, but it is as a result of those struggles that this blog has come about.
As the years passed and the struggle kept coming, I would say to God, "I'm not sure why we have to go through all of this, but if we have to God, then allow my story to serve as a means of encouragement to others so all this pain isn't for nothing."
Well, the years passed but the struggles never went away. I feel now is the time God wants me to begin sharing my story. It is my prayer as I share my heart that it will serve as a healing opportunity for you, my readers. Know you are not alone. There are hope and encouragement that waits.
