Learning to Live With Me

Several years ago, I fell in love with the music of Gary Allan. Gary has a song called, "Learning to Live With Me." These words from this song really touched me:

Is anybody satisfied with who they really are?
You could be the moon
And still be jealous of the stars.
You gotta' learn to swim
If you can't walk upon the sea,
So I'm learning to live with me.

I've been on a journey for the last few years of trying to figure exactly how to live with me. Part of what I'm learning is that there a quite a few things I need to change. I simply don't like who I've become.

I'm also learning that there are quite a few things I do like about me and that are great the way they are. I'm learning to accept, acknowledge and embrace those things.

Mostly, I'm learning that to have a different and better life, I need to make different and better choices.

This blog is about my journey, the things I'm discovering and learning about how to make my life the best it can be...As Gary says, "I'm learning to live, Learning to forgive, I'm learning to Live With Me."
