Blessing(s) 25 of 52 It’s hard to even type this and it feels even harder to call it a blessing. I have said before that blessings are often found in pain and this blessing is no exception. My baby of 15 years, my Hunny, the love of my life, my sweet basset hound was diagnosed with cancer. He had started having trouble eating and swallowing, so I took him to the vet and they found…
Blessing 24 of 52 When I set out on my 52 blessings in a year, I didn’t really have a set structure of how things were going to look. I just knew that I needed to get out of my self described “rut” by committing to doing one new thing a week. I hadn’t even thought about how that one new thing a week was going to come my way. Would I actively seek it…
Blessing 23 of 52 This week was full of firsts, thanks to my new Hospice role. I’m still pinching myself that this is even real. Even though I had a lot of “new blessings” this week, the one that made the most impact was when I shadowed the chaplain. When I started volunteering for Hospice, the spiritual aspects of the life transition captured my heart the most. In our volunteer training the Chaplain presented to…
Blessing 22 of 52 As I reflect, so many of my blessings this year have come from my experiences with Hospice and through church. I’ve signed up for experiences that have taken me out of my comfort zone (which is kind of the goal). This week, blessing 22 came through church. My church hosted a women’s conference on Saturday, June 3rd. In pure fashion, I spent weeks going back and forth on if I should…
Blessing 21 of 52 When I was volunteering for Hospice, it brought me many new experiences. I wrote about them earlier in the year as they were also new blessings. Little did I know, that volunteering would open the door to a new career path. This week I started the Hospice job and, with it, has come many things I’ve never experienced before. I learned so much already my first week and keep pinching myself…
Blessing 20 of 52 This new blessing came in the form of me not jumping ship when I became uncomfortable. I’m part of a beautiful spiritual group where we use our intuitive gifts for the collective. It’s truly a beautiful space that has opened me up and where I’ve become more aquatinted with my spiritual gifts. The container holds people from all around the world, which I’m also eternally grateful for as they are my…
Blessing 19 of 52 This week the blessing came looking for me. If I’m honest, blessings are always looking for us if we are open to receiving them. At this moment in my life, I’m living in full abundance of receiving the beautiful gifts God has in store for me. Blessing 19 came to me when I least expected it. On Wednesday morning, I was getting ready to make the weekly Hospice comfort calls, when…
Blessing 18 of 52 Another blessing this week revolving around food! As I mentioned in a previous post, trying new restaurants is a definite hobby of mine. For a few years, I had slowed down on finding new places, but, thanks to my new weekly blessing commitment, I’m back in action. This week, the blessing came forth through Mexican food. Well, let’s be honest, authentic Mexican food should always be referred to as a blessing.…
Blessing 17 of 52 You really can’t make this up and you never know where life is going to take you. I could write a novel on my career transitions since 2020. However, that will be for another time and place. This is all about Blessing 17 of 52 this year and this is a huge one. More than huge actually. It’s a divine orchestration from the heavens above. As I’ve mentioned in my previous…
Blessing 16 of 52 This week has two new blessings! Well, if I’m honest every week is full of multiple blessings. It’s a blessing to wake up everyday and to be reminded I’m here on a planet earth for a reason. The blessings I’m referring to are the “new blessings” I committed to at the beginning of the year. And, this week it just so happens that I was fortunate enough to experience two new…
