Adventures in 2008

Lately I have found myself using the word "adventure" in conversation a lot more than normal. It came out in conversation with Pastor Steve a few days ago and today he did a sermon on journey and adventure and the fears and joys that come with every adventure. I wish he would stop stealing all of my ideas for his sermons!!!!!

My husband and I are getting ready to go on our first international adventure together. We are going to Guatemala on a Habitat for Humanity building trip. We are very excited about this adventure.

I have added a few new professional projects that will bring more adventure to my business and my life than ever before.

Yes, there are things in the works that will push me way beyond what I am normally used to or even comfortable doing. But isn't that what life is all about. You can't just sit back and experience all the fear and none of the joy that comes with life's journeys. Think of what you would miss.

So - we are off for all kinds of adventures in 2008. Ones that will be filled with fear, joy, success, failure, fun, hard work, happiness and sadness.

What types of adventures are you planning for 2008?
What type of journey are you on?

LIFE is an adventure!
If you never took any risks, life would be boring. Sometimes you just have to hold your nose and jump. Imagine a 17 year old girl getting a job in a bank, then over the next 34 years working for 8 more banks. All of a sudden this girl (OK, big girl) decides she is going to be an image consultant. And, she is!
