Just "Be"

Today I was inspired to start something new. . .hopefully this blog will be interesting for others to read.  At the very least, it will be a place for me to write/reflect.  My inspiration yielded from yet another snow day (this is the 3rd one in a row with 2 more to follow) and a friend (she blogs already and loves it!).  My husband is at work and there's only so much cleaning one can do.  So here I am sitting on the couch bundled up in a fleece blanket.  For me, it's hard to find a place to start.  Typically thoughts run through my head a mile a minute.  I feel as though God has given me these snow days to take a moment to just be.  So many times my life is wrapped up in the hustle and bustle that I rarely take time to just be.  Talking with my dad earlier, I feel like I haven't had a break since high school (maybe even before that).  There's always something to do that just can't wait, another thing to check off the to do list.  So today... and the rest of this week that I have off, my goal is to rest and cliche as it sounds "just be."

  1. Michaela! Welcome to the blogging world! It's taken me a while to get into it, but I love it now. I think you'll end up loving it as well. :]
    You know, I think your dad is right! These snow days are a perfect relaxation time for you. Enjoy the peace and quiet, and hopefully I'll see you soon.
    Much love!
