Currently I am reading Heaven by Randy Acorn, Mere Christianity by CS Lewis, Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert and for Church – Divine Renovation by Father James Mallon.
This fits in with my #3 Strength – Intellection. I love reading and learning, and much of it inspires my Futuristic strength. I don’t like to rush through reading these types of books. As I read a little at a time I sometimes find similar or identical thoughts by the different authors, even when the theme of their books differ.
I’ve been transitioning within myself most of my life. Somewhat of a gypsy as I’ve lived in many places including abroad, and travelled quit a bit. A few years ago I realized I must have been searching for HOME when I happened on Greenville SC. I thought it was just a great place to make day trips and occasional weekends away from where I was living at the time. Then one day I realized it was THE PLACE where I felt AT HOME. A few years later I was able to move here.
Greenville is not perfect as a city, not paradise, but it is a good place to live; and make wonderful new friends and friendly acquaintances.
I’m enjoying my various temp jobs while waiting for a great permanent part-time job. It also affords me the joy of meeting more great people. I don’t need to be rich, but I do need to have the extra quality personal time to read, learn, be inspired, and write.
Where to I go from here?
I continue to transition into better habits and see my path to a more creative life.
