Renewed

It has been a while since I posted here, and with good reason: I finally graduated from my transcription course! I decided to put everything on hold so I could reach my dream, and I did it! It was not without a lot of late nights, tears, and questioning if I was "good enough" to do this, but I managed to turn inward, look at my Faith in the Universe, and I decided that I was definitely worth the struggle!

Talk about putting one's Faith to the test! Not only did I do this all by myself by trusting that I could accomplish what I put my mind to 2 years ago , but I decided that I had waited long enough to reach my goal of being a stay-at-home mom. I did everything that I was "supposed to do" along the way while I waited, and, quite frankly, I was sick of it! I was scared, but my desire to be what/where I wanted to be was stronger than my fear, so I set a date to be done with work and put my notice in before I had even graduated. People were amazed, but I just knew that what I was doing was right. I can't explain it, but my very soul was calm when I thought about my plans. True to form, God stood by me through it all, and I graduated about 1.5 weeks before the date I put on my resignation letter.

Granted I don't have a job or even the prospect of one, but I still feel comforted in my heart. I just know that this was right for me and my family, and I plan to make every moment count!
