TMI – Too much information! Is what I’m thinking in regards to today’s post, but what the heck, you guys already know so much about me! This story began in one of my senior years of high school in the Bahamas, when I was invited by a friend with her for the summer to New Jersey. We stayed with her aunt and uncle and I remember them having three kids in a very beautiful house in the suburbs there. The couple both work together and were the owners of a successful business. And what I really remember about that trip was in the back yard of their house, one Friday evening, her uncle barbecued chicken wings and I just remember thinking, ‘This is the life I want for myself!’ I never had the experience of living with my dad, so this interaction with this family really had a huge impact on me. Fast forward maybe two weeks ago and almost 25 years later, I get a call from my hubby. “What time will you be home so that we can have the BBQ ready?’ My hubby loves to BBQ, we both work together in our own business and we have lots of kids! Even the houses somewhat match! I’m living the life I had imagined for myself! Before I met my hubby though, there were two significant relationships I had. One I dumped and one dumped me. The one I left was one of the hardest things I had to do, but after getting engaged, I just saw myself getting a divorce and because I didn’t have that feeling of peace in going through with the marriage, I made the difficult decision to leave him. But then I got dumped! Even though we had some financial ties together I didn’t become bitter or fight about it, I simply left. I read a book that said, “The best revenge is living well.” And I was out of there! This was before I was such a God maniac, but again this decision came as a result of me following my intuition to let everything go and keep moving. And for the record, years later when he realized his mistake, my mom bragged to him that I was happily married with 2 kids! The moral of this story: Life is all about the decisions you make. Only you and God know what the best decisions are. Follow your gut, intuition, spirit, heart or whatever you may call it! I believe that’s God directing us! In the 1000 decisions you make every day, go to God focused on doing the right, excellent and most loving thing! WE GO WITH GO!
