This Summer
This summer has been one of blessing and discovery. Some things would have been nice if they turned out differently. However oh well what is done is done. The Lord however allowed me to discover some things that I might not have had the opportunity to discover though had I had been working. Sure the money w0uld have been nice but I would not have discovered just the reason behind this continuous frustration of not finding my niche. Curiosity did not hurt either. It is because my curiosity that I discovered what really made me tick and the reason behind my uniqueness. This experience of discovering how I tick with a more thorough explanation of those crazy situations I have found myself in contributed to my summer of discovery.In addition I had the opportunity last month to get away for a fews days. I traveled with my family to Eastern Ohio for The Hollingsworth 100th family reunion. Those four days were a blast. At this reunion I learned quite a bit about my heritage. I especially enjoyed learning about Mary Martha Titus Hollingsworth and the legacy she left behind. Perhaps God might have given me the opportunity to pick up on her legacy. The reunion also enabled me to catch up with my cousin Sarah who I have not seen in 12 years. I also met her husband DJ. I really enjoyed all the family time that weekend. The reunion included many activities including a talent show. I decided to share one of my poems. I especially got the nerve after hearing how Mary Martha wrote poetry many years ago. I am quite proud of the legacy Mary Martha and Martin left behind. I hope I carry on this legacy to my children as well.
This summer might have been disappointing in that I wish I found some lucrative work. However, at least I have a poem published on dyspraxiausa.org. My summer has been more complete than last year. Too bad I cannot forget the stupidity and absurdity of last year. However that is another story.
On a final note it would be great if I started getting interviews that turned into potential job offers. Oh well, perhaps the Lord is directing me to places to explore more of myself. Next Wednesday I am going to start volunteering with The Zone. Finally it would be nice if Mr. Right were to come w/i the next few months. Hopefully the Lord will bring someone in my life.
