A Library of Peace

Working at the library today was like that night I spent at the pool late last summer. For those who have started reading this blog since then, it was a warm night and I was by the pool writing in my journal when I decided to go swimming fully clothed. Under an orange moon, it was so restful, soothing, and peace-giving. You can read the post here. I like being there and I like being around Adria and getting to help her Kim with the books. (And you know I love books). It was also really nice to catch up with each other, a lot has been going on in both our lives. It helped take a step back, look more at the larger view of things, sense how I've grown, where I still struggle, and it gives me some peace. I've been going so fast at home, it was nice to have a quieter day. She would tell you it was busy, but for me, it was calmer and I could just be.

After I get back from the editorial board meeting which I have been working on all night, I am going to take a serious look at my personal and business finances. Emily has already agreed to talk with me about it as a first step in deciding what I want to do. What I am amazed at is that Adria and her husband are part of the U-Turn Challenge program at a regional credit union where they work closely with financial advisers for a year and you can follow their progress and the progress of the other three families participating. You can be sure I will be on that blog listening and learning, looking at the resources for this is something I too, need to learn. I am hoping it all rubs off. God's timing is truly amazing. Thank you God!
