Wonders Never Cease

Even in the darkest times, people still make connections. I've met several new people online and have had some of the best conversations. It always amazes me how connections can be made so unexpectedly, and especially when we need them the most. I'm a firm believer that nothing happens by accident. If someone comes into our lives and gives a little perspective into what we're dealing with, it's because we needed that insight. My friends have provided me with invaluable perspective and wonderful, generous ears to let me vent and whine.

So I met someone through my blog, which prompted me to go back and read it through the beginning. Wow. So much can happen in such a short time. I already feel like a storm has come through and whipped through my life, rearranging everything. And I'm talking after the move. Lord knows the move was change enough. I'm in completely different circumstances from when I first got here. And the... I don't know... The feeling of things has changed. I've been feeling a lot more raw and have been forced to look at life through different lenses. I'm tripping up trying to describe this; bear with me. It's a perspective shift. I see everything differently now. It's a damaged perspective, a tired one.

Anyhow, I'm grateful for the help that comes my way in the form of connections I have with people and the new ones I'm creating. I've made it through days that have become weeks. Soon enough, they will become months and I will be on the other side of this. Until then, thank God and thank all of you who have lent support.

A change is gonna come... :)
