My life mantra right now. |
But. Here we are. The pieces of life are melding back together. But let me never forget the darkness fought me-HARD. The depths of every weakness (and then some) tried to overcome me; consume me. And I let it win for a while; with moments of a lapse of light; but it ultimately didn't win. Fighting happened; the battle grounds were trampled.
Music; my life saver-literally. |
They fought with me. They let me know the other side is out there; to be patient with the process; reminding me continually the light was there. Though my eyes were blinded from that Truth, theirs were not. And I finally saw it; I arrived; we won (duh).
I could write a novel of stories of how 'so-and-so' was there for 'this' and I am so grateful they still love me. That is the best life I could ever ask for too. Experiencing such deep love from so many people is something I wish everyone could have in their life; I am immensely blessed to have that.
GIRLS NIGHT to celebrate Karen and wish her well in Florida. SO thankful for this family. |
1) I am happily full-time at Fleet Feet and here to stay for a while. I am loving everyone on staff; loving helping people, and indwelling everything Fleet Feet life. #fleetfeetfam
2) I am reading and soaking in everything USAT. Knowing I am going to be a coach is still incredible. I am coaching at FF, and on the side, and that is an incredible experience.
my heart; some of our Ryanman training group. |
4) I am back to exercising an hour a day with a rest day (or 2). That's all. No 'spontaneous X many miles ride or run'. Recovery comes first, but I am THRILLED to be back swimming, cycling, and running! (My slowness in this heat is HUMBLING!)
Team Ryanman Brave. Such an honor and exciting experience to do this with them! |
So. Hello TO the other side (as compared to the Adelle song).
It is nice to meet you. It's my old life BUT newer and improved; my life will never be the same. I didn't think this day would come; it makes all the aimless, tough, tear-filled months worth it all.
This is my story. This is my song. Praising my Savior; all the day long.
Praise our Savior!!!!!! Meg, I am so proud of you. I am proud of your fighting spirit and strong faith. I am proud that you are willing to be vulnerable. I LOVE YOU, and I am so thankful for this new horizon for you. You are an INSPIRATION and I'm blessed to be your besite!! -'Chelle
