A New Chapter

Today I started a new chapter in my life. After 5 years with my previous employer it was time to move on and pursue my interests in the non-profit world. There were times when I felt lost, stuck, and unsure of my next steps, but I just kept going. I remained patient and faithful that God would lead me where He wanted me to go. I'm very grateful for the challenges, growth, and favor I've experienced so far. I believe that things happen right when they are supposed to, and everything comes full circle eventually. The moment you feel like everything is falling apart, something great will happen. So whatever you've been patiently waiting on, pray on it, work hard, and watch what happens.  I've had so many crazy things happen recently, and all I can say is that I'm truly blessed.  Before I left, one of my former colleagues brought me a beautiful silk scarf from her trip home to India. I was so elated that she even thought enough of me to bring me something back.  Her gift was a reminder that you will never know the effect you will have on another person, and I'll always cherish the friends and colleagues I've made along the way. I'm excited about this new chapter and what the rest of 2016 has in store!
