Being Courageous

I'm ready to go back to school. It's odd that just a few months ago I was ready to let go of the dream of completing my degree, but the more God stirs my heart to counsel, the more I'm ready to get moving and do what it takes to accomplish this goal. I was talking to a friend last night and she said some things that really motivated me. She was thinking out loud and brainstorming on how I could earn my degree and support myself financially and how I could tie my writing into all of this. It got me thinking too, so we'll see what doors God will open as I move forward in pursuit of my degree!

I've become obsessed with exercising again. Next to God and my family, its one of the things I think about most, ok and good food too! I just woke up one day and decided I'm so sick and tired of feeling unhealthy and not being physically fit and not doing anything consistently to change it. I want this to become a life style and not just sporadic impulses of going crazy exercising and losing a bunch of weight and then falling into a slump and gaining the weight back. My struggles with weight has been a constant battle since my early 30's and it doesn't seem to get any better as I get older. Determined to stay focused and shed the weight!
