Forced reflection

So I had this trip to KC planned for several weeks. I was looking forward to it - counting the days. I had a nagging fear it would get changed or cancelled but I was wrong....sort of. I arrived as planned today and the week has gone off without a hitch so I was super pumped about that. But about an hour after I got here, down came the snowflakes - BIG ones! And it is still snowing - BIG time.

Instead of experiencing the excitement of exploring a new place, I am holed up in my hotel room. Remarkably, I am not too upset about it. Sure I'm a little bummed but it seems as if I needed this time for reflection. Life has been dealing me some tricky cards lately and I have just been sweeping them off to the side thinking I will take care of them later. It is becoming more apparent that I can't simply put things off but that I need to address them - head on. Decisions must be made but I am not equipped to handle them yet. I need more info. I need to study a bit more, listen a bit more, PRAY alot more.

So I think I will take this time to get some of the heaviness I feel off my chest. To figure out where I stand. Absorb the feelings I have and decide just what to do with them. OH - and psych myself up for the drive to work tomorow morning in KC traffic and SNOW! Yup - I'm shakin in mah boots on that one! BUT - I know once I tackle that, I will feel a great sense of accomplishment and courage. And THAT is exactly what I need right now :)
