So–what about now?  Do you ever spend a few moments in self-evaluation?  Where are you now?  Are you where you want to be?  If you are, congratulations!!!!  If not, what can you do to empower yourself to be where you want to be?

I have been thinking a bunch about inter-generational connections lately.  We are bound to the past by our personal history, and we are bound to the future by the legacy we leave.  So I pose this question again, “What about now?”

What are you doing today to strengthen yourself…to empower your children…to build upon the legacy left by those who have gone before…to live the life you were born to live…?  (I guess I’m still thinking of “Climb Every Mountain”…LOL!)

I have myriad thoughts running through my mind on a given day about what to do, who to reach out to, how to bless my children, how to build a stronger relationship with my husband.  Sometimes these moments are moments that cause stress; other times I feel empowered by the life I have been given and the responsibilities in my hands.

So, for now, I will try to be a little better, a little more patient, a little better prepared, and a little bit calmer.  I will work now to make the plans for my future that will be stepping stones to reach my goals.  I will live in the present and make the most of each day–NOW.

How about you?  Will you join me?
