Who doesn’t remember the famous hide-and-seek words that we all said before we went “seeking”?? I was thinking about this when TM apologized for not being able to come to the last meetings of the G.I.F.T. As I shared my great news with friends who were all so excited for me, it all became confirmation for me. Everyone around me has been supportive and seen how I have changed with my attitude towards life, friends, and what I want for others. But when a simple little story about attitude was acknowledged and given to the rest of the world to see, I knew it. There have never really been times before when I thought that I would stop doing what I am doing, but this has given me new motivation to keep moving in the direction I am headed. It has invigorated me to move. To write. To reach out. I feel like I did when I was young when I would play hide-and-seek.  I am searching for new opportunities, never knowing where they might be, but looking behind every tree, in every closet, and under every bench to see what is there, even if it is not someone I am seeking. Because I have shared this with others, new doors are opening every day. People want to help me be successful. Are you ready to take on what is before you today? Even if you do not know what it is yet? I am. No one can hurt me unless I give them permission to do so. So, world, ready or not, here I come!
