Introspection

It has been quite a while since I sat down and reflected... I take that back... since I wrote about my thoughts about myself. (How narcissistic do I sound?) The thing is that I was more at peace with myself when I did spend a lot more time looking in the mirror, and working on changing the things I didnt like. (Figuratively and literally.)

I have a lot of things that I need to work on, physically, spiritually, mentally. I have pretty much established at this point that I am a mess... but I wasnt always, and I still remember that not TOO long ago, there was a healthy, happy Lauren who had her self together! Now, if I could just find that girl again! :)

Kellen and I have started going back to Church, and it is something that I really enjoy. Working on my (& Kellen's) spiritual life has been very rewarding. It has also helped our relationship a lot, and we have turned it into a date time, where we can reflect on the message we heard at Church and discuss our thoughts, feelings, etc.

I have had a TON of humbling experiences this year, so I have become increasingly aware of all of my "areas of opportunity." Sometimes I have looked inside and I just hate what I see. I want to turn that around so I can be a better person, a better wife, daughter, sister, friend. Hopefully, I will get there sooner than later. I have always been, and continue to be, a work in progress!

Well, until next time!
