Setteling In

I have my key. We've had them for a month now. That alone did not bring me to the realization that having a new home to call my own is not only a precious gift, but a reality. In the midst of my new adventures: waking up early everyday to start my day off a little different. I like to eat while relaxing a little, get dressed, take my time, and walk to the train by no later than 7:40 a.m. on a early day 8:20 a.m. on a later/ the earlier I arrive, I feel the better it is for my day that usually consist of maintaining a large amount of to-do's, which I love. I like the fact that this new period of time in my life seemed at first like it was moving way to fast, almost like lightening, everything struck at once. Leaving me to feel as though I was hit hard and fast. The only thing that was different from being hit by lightening was the aftermath was nothing but pleasing. I have in the end a new home, beautiful home, a new job...that many believe is one of the best positions, in the best places one could imagine. As I remain humble to it all, my mind sometimes takes me to a place of appreciation where I realize where this all came from. As I settle into my new position, in my new house I think um mm..."Greater is He that is in [and around] me then he that is in the world."

I love living

Even when I feel like, "man what is my purpose on this earth?" I can truly say that I love living.
