Embracing The Me I Remember.

It's been a long few years.

With marriage struggles and the separation,

surviving has weighed heavily on my soul

and sucked the life out of me.

But, I'm happy to say that in these past few weeks,

I've felt more like myself than I have in years.

Today, for Embrace the Camera,

I'm gonna go out on a limb and embrace, um,

just me.

Can I do that?

Feels a little selfish.

But, I'm gonna go with it,

in an effort to practice self-appreciation.

To say hey you,

I 've missed our time together.

I think you are kinda cool.

And silly.

But, I like that about you.

The Lord has had me on a path of healing.

I wouldn't trade this journey for anything

because it has brought me closer to Him

and helped me begin to truly receive from others

without feeling the compulsion to reciprocate.

But man, does it feel good to be that girl again.

Spontaneous, spunky, energized, inspired by so many things.

Able to act on my inspirations.

Now, that's a gift.
