Always looking for the next adventure and challenge, striving to do more, striving to be more and experiencing life to the fullest. I’d rather say tried and failed than I had a safe life. The future is what you make it by trying new things, the people you meet along the way and the experiences you have are what make you who you are and make you interesting.

Constantly evolving although inside I am sometimes still 17 (an age I loved), I find that forever learning about life and individuals has improved me, I feel like a tree at times, sometimes branching out, sometimes moving with the breeze, sometimes resting and sleeping, sometimes reaching for things way out of my reach. Where life was once scary, scary, scary, it is now scary and interesting, a sort of new adventure is beginning, and I realise life is not out to get me but I now have to go grab life!  It has taken me 40 years to realise this :)

I have always struggled to understand God, and often wonder whether I really have any faith at all, or whether the Object of my faith is even real. Yet I have realized recently that I cannot conceive of myself except in relation to this Other – real or not – this struggle to know what is beyond me. The knowledge that I cannot be any other than this, that endless searching shapes me and is essential to who I am – this brings its own kind of restless peace.
