SOCS: My Season of Growth

stream of consciousness Sunday
Today's Writing Prompt:
Define the season of your life at this very moment.

Over the past year my life has taken a complete 180 from where I thought I wanted to be. I will admit that I am  happier and more content with where I am. I enjoy the many different roles that I have - wife, mother, daughter, big sister, auntie, friend, mentor, blogger.... I still strive for more though.  There are personal goals that I have set for myself that I haven't attained and had to put on the back burner.  I'm slowly making moves and re-aligning priorities so I can focus on those items again.  I love my family and need to continue to better myself so I can help with providing for them.  My husband is awesome when it comes to being the breadwinner and I truly appreciate all he does for us.  My goal is to be more of a help to him.  I know it's possible and my mind is often working in overdrive with different business ideas and financial plans to help take our family to the next level of greatness.  Throughout it all, I keep prayerful and continue to ask God for guidance and direction. I'm embracing this season of growth and gratitude that I'm in.  I'm loving the wonderful people that are being placed in my life to help mentor and guide me.  Completely surprised but accepting and acknowledging the people that are being led to me for guidance and advice, too.  We are learning and growing together.
