In my 27th year...

Today, on my birthday I began to think about what age 27 as been like for me, and it was awesome! As I look back over the last year it is difficult to find any one big thing I regret. Of course there are areas that didn't go perfectly as I see them, but as far as regrets...well...I am good!

In my 27th year I have successfully trained for, and completed three Sprint Triathlons, read several great books, and had amazing people speak into my life, contributing the amazing personal growth, and even incorporated a brand new non-profit organization in North Carolina! How could my 27th be any better? How could any year be any better?

Guess what.

Year 28 could be just that, as I train for a marathon and, at least, an international distance triathlon! In addition to this, Living Hope Camping Foundation (my non-profit) is on track to gain 501c3 status and award its first scholarships the summer of 2012! As much as I loved 27, I have a feeling 28 is going to be even better!

By 27! Sorry to see a great year go, but happy to see a year that promises to be just as good, if not better, arrive!


P.S. I posted several months back about the "My One Word" idea. This is an idea that is similar to a New Years Resolution, but yet so different. When I found the correct word, which for me was 'calm', I truly did remember this word, and was able to improve my thought process in tough situations and events.

I highly recommend picking one word for the entire year in 2012, instead of a resolution. However, you WILL forget this as quickly as you forget a resolution if you don't put serious thought, and prayer, into picking your word for 2012. Start thinking and praying now! Choose one word to clarify your vision for your life in 2012.
