Day 2 - Failure Looms

Already I feel like I am losing ground on the New Year.

How does this happen? 

I tell myself - when the kids are back in school it will be easier because we will be back in routine. Or when the puppy situation is over it will be easier for my heart and head to focus. I think I am just making excuses.

I don't understand if I want to find the answer to my life's purpose so badly why I would have trouble focusing on it.  But, perhaps that is exactly the problem with my life and the reason I feel I lack a purpose.

Inability to follow through.

Day One - The Journey Resumes

So here it is New Year's Day.

This year.....

How many years have I started off with the seemingly innocuous two little words above and then tacked on some preposterous clause.  

...learn the piano.

...travel more.

... have fewer regrets.

...read the Bible everyday.

All wonderful intentions, but nothing more than empty words. Why can't I follow through?

This year I am not going to do it.  This year I feel I must figure it out I pray.

Stay tuned.
