The Winds of Change

Ahh… there’s nothing like a full line of laundry blowing in a brisk breeze. This week, Hurricane Igor certainly blew his almighty gale through Newfoundland & Labrador and lucky for me, the only impact I had to endure personally is the washing of extra bedsheets because of our overnight guests who had no power at their own homes for several days.

With the kids back to school (following an unexpected 3-day break due to power outages), I had some quiet time to tidy, shop for groceries and do the piles of laundry. As I gazed peacefully at the blankets whipping away on the clothesline, the sight of a moving truck reminded me that today was a significant anniversary in my life.

Six years ago, today, the winds of change blew me to this house. It is a place where I have lived in possibility. I have many wonderful memories here. What a wonderful thing to be able to say! But that’s what this home purchase was about – creating a new life that is full of laughter and love. While the decision was initially difficult, I have faced others since that make me realize how strong I am and how I have the power to create the life that I want. It may have been my biggest leap at the time, I have more to come… and in the very near future!

I have expressed my gratitude on many levels this week. Today I am grateful for the wind – the past, the present and the future – it is Mother Nature’s motivator.
