Leap of Faith...

Leap of Fatith, the act or an instance of believing or trusting in something intangible or incapable of being proved.  Well, I'd say I am taking a big leap of faith as I have made the decision to move to Dallas, TX.  I am completing my number 21. Open up and follow my heart.  I have been very skeptical about dating again and opening up my heart to someone after things I have been through.  I definitely closed off my heart and my feelings for a very long time.  I felt numb and I was honestly okay with it for awhile because I wasn't feeling pain anymore, I wasn't getting close to people to allow myself to feel pain.  Well, after awhile I realized I didn't want to live that way anymore, life is too short! So completing number 21 was a big goal for me this year, ya know, to really open up my heart and be transparent with someone again.  Of course its a daily thing, but my heart is finally happy again, more than it has ever been, and I'm going to follow it to Texas.  Some people may say I am crazy but that is okay because its my journey, not theirs. :)  

Don't worry, I found a really awesome job and career path I have been wanting to go down for a long time.  So with that being said, I am completing my number 23. Pursue a career in health and wellness.  I have accepted a position with MyFitFoods at their newest location in Dallas.  I will finally be a Nutrition Coach, which is what I've wanted to do for years now!  I have had a lot of self-doubt and I thought I wasn't good enough or knew enough to be able to do it, so I never pursued it.  One thing I really admire about Joe is his ambition and confidence, not only in himself, but he wants all his family and friends to have the same mindset about themselves; he doesn't believe in settling for less.  So he really has encouraged me and helped me believe in myself!  I stepped out of my box and put myself out there, and look what happened?  It was a lot easier than I expected and I am so excited to begin this journey!  It is happening a lot sooner than expected, I get to Dallas March 30th and begin working April 3rd.

It is definitely going to be very hard to leave family, as I am a family oriented person, especially with my new niece just being born on Monday!  I am already so sad about that :( I hate not being here to see her grow, but hopefully I'll be back here soon!  I know that this is what I need to do for me and for my life at this time.  Home is always here and we can always come back this way.  

Change is always scary at first, I like this quote by Birdiee Pruitt "Beginnings are scary, endings are usually sad, but it's the middle that counts the most. Try to remember that when you find yourself at a new beginning. Just give hope a chance to float up. And it will..."  Well, I will miss everyone here in the midwest, but I will keep everyone updated on my yearly transformation in Texas. :)
