The lives we touch

It's funny how we as human beings live daily without even knowing how we affect another. Whether it be good or bad. Most people in my life have touched my soul in one way or another. The most recent encounter really got to me yesterday. I received the sweetest text from a mom (one of many I adore!) I have been asking "how can I serve my fellow people and stop being so self involved?" I want to be able to give if I can to help another. Whether it be praise or comfort. Being a nurse we try to fix people. It's no offense to those around us. It's in our blood. Our nature. Call it a calling if you will. The one thing I am grateful is for my ability. I can do anything I want. Here I am sitting and dwelling about my lack of family. Lack of awesome husband/boyfriend/pool boy. Lack of money. Lack of wait... No. I have enough chunk haha but seriously. I am totally ready to challenge myself. So something good everyday. One step past my extra mile. It's funny how feeling this way makes me feel. I am more open. More honest with myself. More outgoing. More trusting. More enthusiastic in general. Today I started cleaning out my life. Declutter if you will. Junk food. Stuff in storage. Mind junk. Negative feelings. Wow did the sun just appear and light my way. I may mess up and I may have a bad day. But it's not about perfection. It's about trying. So today. I tried.
