2009...

Last year, i set out very specific goals, and this year i have not yet, perhaps it's better that way? I do know that the goal setting session i had last year was excellent and really helped me to focus throughout the year. at the same time, i wonder what it looks like to live in a way where there aren't those posted goals on the wall or note book, but rather in my heart. goals and ways to strive toward righteousness in a very real way.
its really fun to dream and to dream big, i'm rediscovering what it is to look beyond where i am at the moment to where things could be. and MAYBE, just maybe, it's not so much setting the big goals to get there, but living in the daily discipline.
i went for a hike today. staring at the castle of frozen icicles on a rocky face reflected on a semi frozen body of water felt like maybe i was staring into the reality of my soul. something so beautiful, even in a half dazed state, yet at the same time, just longing to be thawed out, free to be the way it's supposed to be. . . there's a lot of change opportunity and a lot of exciting things for this year, the question is can i be the one to be obedient and open. ready for all that comes my way, and embracing change.
oh how i hate change... but at the same time, i secretly love it .
