Out with the .....

Out with the old Year and in with the New Year 2008.
What happened in 2007? Well for me alot, just a little run down. End of 2006, quit my job I had for 17 years, took a huge leap of FAITH and went back to school. Massage School as most of you know. There I met alot of good people, worked through a dependency of anti depressants I had been on for almost 5 years, learning how to live again, feel again and just be myself again, were very hard for me. Thankfully I had my family and friends, old and new to help my through it all. If it wasn't for all of that I really do not know where I would be right now.
Okay so I made it through school, passed the test, got the license, now it's time to start making a new career for myself. LMT, licensed massage therapist to those you don't know. Starting my new job at a Spa in Chiefland, training starts tomorrow, looking forward to actually doing massage again and being in a great place, a place full of compassion, caring individuals( some FSM graduates) just wanting to help others take a moment to realize life is what you make it, whether it is good or bad, put in good and good will come back, I hope to put in alot of good, cause I definitely want alot of it back.
Now on to the NEW, New Year, New Job, New Opportunities to meet New People. Not that I am leaving behind the ones I met in 2007, some are very dear to my heart and I think of them often, ocassionally get to see them); others that cross my mind, I think of in different ways, thankfulness that I had them in my life for the season that I needed them. Believe me ---- recognizing this is a big one for me. Everyone who knows me, really knows me, would know that I would love to keep everyone of you close by forever, unfortunately, life doesn't work that way, so I take what I can get ( a message, text or call every now and then, maybe even lunch) and I try my best to count all of it as a blessing, whether it hurts or feels good, whether it makes me cry or laugh, until I snort. I really hope all of you know what kind of impact you have had on my life, and in case I didn't say it out loud, I love you all and I'm thankful that I got to meet you and share moments I will cherish forever.
Deep Breath, wiping away tears. I am moving onward and upward and I know I will run into to some of you on the way, I hope I remember to take the time to stop and spend a moment to enjoy the companionship however long it lasts.
Love to you All and Happy new year, I wish you all a very blessed year in 2008. Resolving to enjoy all the minutes that go by. Okay so now, I made up for not blogging for so long. Take care everyone.
Hope
