I thought of a new blog title, and decided to check and see if it was available as a url. Apparently, it is. So, here I am again.
I doubt this will last anymore than my last attempt at blogging, but hey, here's hoping!
The Peace In Between comes from my desire to find peace in the journey - in between where I am and where I want to be. Several years ago I took a class called Living Your Strengths, where you learn what your strengths are and how to use them in your life, and how to improve upon them. My number one strength is Input. I've figured out what it is: I basically like to collect - things, ideas, experiences, etc. And I like complete sets. The thing is, I have yet to figure out how exactly it's a strength, and not just something that clogs up my house and my resume. There are so many things that I want to do with my life, and I want to do them all, because, well, you know. I'm an Input. I'm 26 and already working on my third career path.
So here's to finding the peace in between. Being happy with who I am now, and where I am on the journey, all the while keeping hope that I will get to my goals someday, and being satisfied that I'm working in that direction, even if they're not realized yet.
Join me on the journey!
I find this to be a lesson most people need to learn. It's a daily struggle, but an important one. And I love the wording you have chosen for it. My husband and I joked as we were dating about the "journey" being more important than the destination. I honestly believe it to be true. You can never be satisfied if you are constantly looking either forward or backward, the here and now is all we are guaranteed so you may as well take it as it comes. Good luck on your journey!
