Yesterday, I slept most of the day. I was exhausted and wasn’t feeling too great. Had to take a Zyrtec and cough medicine. Today’s much better, but I’m still taking it easy.
While at the conference, I didn’t have much time to think about everyday things. I was living in the moment, trying to stay focused on everything I needed to accomplish. However, now that I’m back home, the stillness has awakened the realness of life. It’s also allowed me to think more clearly about my next moves and where I ultimately want to be. I met a lot of like-minded dietitians during this trip, whom I plan to connect with soon. Global has always been my dream. It’s the vision God gave me. It’s the path I’ve been on my entire life. I must stay focused this time.
Before writing this post, I read my journal entry from October 16, 2014. Here’s some of what I wrote:
Shaun’s Journal: October 16, 2014
TD Jakes just posted on Twitter “Now is the time to birth your promise. If you can handle the pain, you can have the promise!”
Now is the time!! I know Lord and I believe it! I’m going through so much right now but Lord I know you got me. You keep showing me over and over again. I just have to trust you. I know you have a lot for me to do. Something important. That’s why I keep getting hit. But God you keep picking me up!! Thank you Lord! Even when I fall short you are still here!! Hallelujah!!!!
Over the past eleven years, I have experienced so many ups and downs, jumped through many hoops, and tried many different approaches to achieving my dreams and goals, but none have worked. However, I have learned so much along the way, especially about myself. This time—yes, this time—I must see things through.
Now is the time.♥️
