In search....

Seems like every day I think of the OKC survivor I met at the race. An incredibly inspiring woman that has had 27 surgeries and was told she was never going to walk again. She now walks with a cane and I remember her face marred with scars of that tragic days events and how little my own life is now. The hard times that I face as a wife and a mother will never even begin to touch the surface of what trials and tribulations she has faced and conquered. She is such an inspiration and testament of what God has in store for us here on this Earth. All we have to do is listen close enough to know what direction to go and what steps need to be taken to make a difference. There is atleast a moment every day since that I wonder how I can be an inspiration to others. What I have to offer to inspire people about. I know I am here for more than just being a mom and wife. I am just not sure of where that destination is yet. I know that I have determination in me to succeed at whatever I am set on, the marathon was a reminder of the fire and drive I have inside. I am not certain if running is something that will be included in my next chapter, but I feel I am definitely getting warmer. I toss ideas around daily hoping it will strike me, but I know it will not until it is meant to. Until then, I will live in the present and enjoy every moment with whoever I encounter, for I have learned, truly, that there are no indications as to what is next.
