New Beginning for 2012

Website fixed and ready to go.  I had not taken the time to ask for help.  In 5 minutes it was corrected,  how careless of me to not fix this sooner.  It has been a good year.  I have found a new serenity in retirement.  I can now relax and not worry that I am not working.  It was a hard thing for me to walk away from, since I had become a teacher later in life.  Finally,  I accepted that my time was over, and it was time to move on.  I enjoy every day now with my children and grandchildren.  I read and write and watch some movies.  It is a new world every day!!

New Beginning

It's been two years since I left teaching.  I thought my heart would break and it did.  I felt so alone and lost, and could not shake the emptiness that consumed me.  I buried myself in books.   I read one after another, involving myself in the lives of the characters.  I finally began to emerge from the pit with the help of a friend who sent me beautiful spiritual emails.  I needed that and it made me look beyond what I had lost , and I began to search for something to make me better.  It has been two years and beginning of the 3rd year.  I feel like a different person.  I  loved the years that I was given to teach.  It was a wonderful experience but it was time to move on.  I hope that now I will find a place for me again.
