Happy Birthday to me.

It was an interesting day. A day filled with doctor and dental appointments and taking time off without getting paid (furlough) and a touch of scotch. It was also a day of me time. I had lunch with an amazing friend of mine. Thanks! Dinner tonight was spent at Del Taco with another. Yes Del Taco. It was a blast and made me realize that it provided a moment when I could smile a little more at life.

Today I thought about where I am at and where do I want to go. I mean within the last 365 days many things have occurred. There is always some good mixed in with some bad. The turning point for many things occurred when I went to Tibet. Yes, Tibet. What an amazing experience. Those six days have caused me re-evaluate my life. I had to ask myself many questions while there and the answers that came back were ones that I did not expect. I looked at all facets in my life and where do I desire to go. Standing on the roof of the world truly had a profound effect. Since that visit I have been looking up and down on my map of life. The number of forks in the road have increased and so has my desire for being me. I no longer feel like the square peg trying to fit in the round hole.

My map of life will take many turns during the next 365 days. I am looking forward to them and the changes in me that will come about.
