We all go through different seasons in our lives. Life is constantly changing and we can never allow ourselves to grow comfortable in any one place.

We must all be willing to push ourselves beyond our comfort level. We will never grow until we refuse to be satisfied where we are and continue to strive for more! Life has so much more to offer us so we must look at each situation that arises as an opportunity for growth!

Sometimes things will hit us pretty hard, but we can't allow these circumstances to keep us down. We must pick ourselves back up and look for the new door is being opened for us. There are always lessons to be learned and as we continue on our life's journey, we take what we've previously learned and carry it to each new level and before we know it we will be way beyond where we ever dreamed we would be!

Connie, What you say is so true.  Sometimes we would like to maintain things as they are but things are always changing, sometimes for the better but sometimes for the worse.  It is important how we react to changes.

Connie,

Your words ring true with me.  As an entreprenuer and mother life is always changing - minute to minute.  Like you, I see something good in all the moments in my life even the difficult ones.  I try to see a "learning opportunity" in everything that happens in my day and I am sharing that with my daughter even at the young age of 10.  Seize the day, Live out Loud and When One door closes another one opens are things I believe in and trust. All the best to you. ~Anne Marie

Connie, first off...Thanks for the warm welcome! I like this post because within the last couple of weeks I've had to step out of my normal comfort level. Since I have a variety of home-based on line companies, I don't actually have a lot of face to face client involvement. With this new venture, I'm meeting clients face to face. If I wasn't so excited about the opportunities I have to offer, things would be a lot harder. I've sold Mary Kay before, and just couldn't get myself out to sell. I didn't really feel like I was contributing to the community. Now though, I'm really gung-ho. I meet clients out for coffee, at their home, and I love every minute of it. Overcoming a mental illness has given me a thankfulness that just overwhelms me sometimes. I praise God that after a long period of sickness that I am back giving to the community instead of just taking. I've also heard "God doesn't close one door without opening another". Take Care,

Kari L. Greenaway
