"Don't fear the future, God's already there."
I sincerely wish I'd been the one to write those words, but I wasn't.
Instead, I'm one of the lucky ones that got to read them. And now, so are you.
Those words speak so loudly to me.
I'm in a place in my life where the future is so unpredictable and it scares me and excites me at the same time. I don't know where I'm headed, when I'll get there or who will be there with me. And soon, I'll have to make big decisions that will have a huge impact on my future, and that scares me. I don't feel like I'm qualified to make those decisions, but I don't want anyone else making them for me, either.
So once again, you find me lost and confused and emotional and scared.
My life reads like a shampoo bottle: Lather, Rinse, Repeat.
I'm stuck in an endless cycle of confusion and unpredictable emotions. And I know that I shouldn't be concerned about what might happen in 10 minutes...or hours...or months...or even years. I shouldn't be frightened of the unknown, because whatever happens, wherever I go, God will be there.
He's hanging out there with an iced cold Dr. Pepper and a smile, and He's ready to lead me into the next unpredictable chapter of my life.
So here I go again.( I can hear you all singing...don't pretend you're not )

I was totally singing! How did you know?
But seriously...don't you love getting your hair washed?
Love you!
OMG! Tams you are so funny.
I was singing too....
You know, the bottle says "lather, rinse, repeat" but ideally it should say "lather, rinse, repeat, be happy with the results and stop." Where do you stop? Shampooing, like many things in my life, (obsessing, for instance) only ceases when I grow exhausted and say "to hell with it". Thanks to the power of suggestion, I'm off to go get a Dr. Pepper..... ~Lyn
Keep up the good work.
