A New Season...

Wow...hard to believe it's been almost a month since my last post. Well, it's been an up and down month for myself emotionally. Still dealing with some of the old wounds, as well as some fresh hurts and fresh pain. Work has been busy and challenging. But I am grateful for the fact that I have a job that allows me to continue to live out my life-mission of being a blessing to others. So, I try to go at it one day at a time. There are some good days, and there are some not-so-good days. But I hope that as I continue to walk forward, a day will come when I can finally leave the past behind...

As part of my new life, I joined a new hockey team! I am playing in a men's league and my team is called the Canlan Canucks. We play on Monday nights and the new Summer season is starting this coming Monday. I am really excited and can't wait to get to the dressing room to meet the guys. Hopefully some new friendships will be formed.

When I am on the ice, it's such a relief to be able to forget everything and just focus all my energy and attention on that little black puck. It is one of the rare times in my life these days that I can stop thinking about "stuff". It's refreshing to be running after something rather than trying to run from something...

Go Canucks!
