I was talking with a work friend who I've clued into my whole discernment process. She made the comment that I seem really at peace and happy with this direction and my decision to start pre-candidacy. I agreed that I am.
She then said something that kind of blew me away. "In the 7 years I've known you, you've never been as happy as you have these past 6 months. You're a completely different person."
You know what, I am. And what's been going on these past 6 months? Spiritual direction, reflection and discernment about just what God is calling me to. Who God is calling me to be. Tha closer I get to that it seems, the happier I am.
I'm early on the journey, but the process seems natural and organic. Like it's meant to be. I met with my spiritual director this morning and she agreed. I've been opening to the spirit. The change and movement has been gradual and building.
And I'm sure will continue that way. How cool is that. Maybe I'll become happier and happier?

I've had even more people tell me I seem happy lately. Even people who have no idea what I'm contemplating with my life. Interesting....
Wonder when the glow will fade? Soon eough I'm sure.

Oh my, those words could have come out of my mouth. I guess that's just the way it works!
