Life's been pretty rough recently - like stare blankly into the mirror, not want to get out of bed rough.
But yesterday.... as I was telling stories in front of an audience with my parents in the crowd, (something I'd been dreaming of doing for months) I realized that, in this not so dreamy season of life, so many of my dreams are still coming true.
Like....
- Getting to take a storytelling class with @clappinghandsfarm and perform stories in front of an audience
- Like joining a baseball team @carolinacrawfishbaseball and hitting a home run and living out all my childhood baseball dreams
- Like leading a presentation with my local library about my favorite place @chathamco
- Like Running a 5k with my peeps
- Like presenting at my first school counselor conference w/ some pretty amazing people
- Like experiencing all the beauty and joy of NC fall in the mnts that still feel like home
- And like being held, loved, and sometimes carried by my friends/family....
How life can feel like a dream and nightmare at the same time is a mystery to me
But I'm sure grateful to still be in living in this mystery...
Because that means that as sure as i am that there might be a few more nightmarish days
I'm also sure there will be many more days full of beauty, love, joy and dreams coming true
And that's reason enough to get me out of bed and look at myself in the mirror and keep going!
