Change

I'm still finishing finals so life hasn't slowed down much lately.

It's been a tough semester for me. In several ways. But most of all I've realized that the passion I had for the medical field has changed. If I could still be working in Pediatrics as an MA I would be. I miss that. But being a nurse is very different from that. I have been wrestling with what this may mean for my future and have made decisions that feels so much better! The main choice has been to go to an undeclared major. I've been meeting with the career office at the USU campus and have been getting a lot of help. I feel SO much better seeing all the options I have. There is even a test and survey process to help me narrow it. There are several classes I can take to help me decide as well.

There are other things that have been tough this semester. Accepting my reality that I cannot do all that is on my plate. I just cannot. I filled it too full and have suffered the consequences.
It has been really trying on my Spirit. But I am doing so much better the last week. I have a refreshed view of goals and feel like I am more prepared to tackle them. It's a relief!

I'm getting more nervous for NY and excited at the same time. It feels more and more like it is the exact place I should be. Love when that happens!

Christmas Season! Wow! Here it is! The tree and lights are all up and I love it. This time of year is special for many reasons, but I'd like to think that one of the best parts is how we treat each other. I love seeing how we show kindness when are perspective has changed. Christmas time does that to our hearts and I love seeing that.

All of these things involve change. There is a lot of that going on with me and I'm grateful that it doesn't feel scary. That I am moving along and OK with it. That I'm OK with who I am and why I am. I just wish that we all could exchange those same feelings with the rest of man kind. We're all in this together people, you really never know what an impact your words (kind or not) will have on others.
