I guess it has been a while...

Last time I wrote in this space, I had just finished my first year of law school. And now, today, I am an attorney. That feels pretty surreal to me...

This solo'ish journey really began in late December 2007, at a dinner with my then husband. I learned at that dinner that we were not actually going to keep trying to improve our marriage. So, suddenly, the five year plan I had in place needed to change!  Because, if you know me, you KNOW it is ALL about the five year plan and a good excel spreadsheet.

Lots has happened since December 2007, and yet I feel pretty much the same (but with some pretty major new skills). Today's meditation poem summed up how I am today....

In These Ten Years …

… I have learned many things about myself

I learned to trust myself

I practiced living small

            So that I could live large

I practiced honesty out loud

I relearned how to love

I practiced setting boundaries

            And or-elses

I practiced adoration and joy and peace

And in the end, I learned to stand my ground.
