This project has been in the making for a while. When I think of blogging, I really get bored of myself! How much do I really have to say? (My husband and friends should be silent on this one)
In life I am a gatherer of people. Who needs to be an expert of all things? I enjoy running my race where I excel and can be challenged to go to the next level. Let’s bring in others for the areas that I can improve the least. For example, I can pick up and clean my house. However, someone with the ability to come in decorate, organize, and visualize a plan for every room should be embraced and well paid! That is not my lane.
I’m ok with that!
Along the road I have found my misfit group of friends to be my lifeline in many areas of my life. And so, like many other things, I’m dragging them along for the ride! You will find stories of marriage, parenting, being a woman, career, and medical events that will inspire and challenge you. These ladies will be asked to share how they truly embrace the Crazy in everyday life. Anyone that walks along me knows that ready-or-not here life comes!
With all its unpredictable beautiful messes, come amazing friends to do life. Because we embrace and move forward – we live. Don’t misunderstand, we get knocked down, we don’t agree with our bosses, and find ourselves on life courses we did not expect. However we ALL have choices. Even in the uncontrolled chaos it is our CHOICE.
Along the way I have found that I operate with 3 general guidelines. It is how we operate at Embrace the Crazy
1. Assumptions
We believe that most offense come from the unspoken thoughts in our heads. Assuming what others intentions, thoughts, and actions could mean can be the first end to any relationship. We challenge you to instead ASK questions. We all interpret based on our life filters.
2. Comparisons
We believe we are imperfect humans. Striving daily to make one more right decision for ourselves, our families, our lives can move us on further on the path to our goals. Our goal is not stopped by OTHERS success. There is plenty to celebrate about each other. We embrace the crazy differences.
3. Judgement
Unless you are an actual judge, give grace. Asking questions and encouraging words go further than casting judgment on others. There is only room for love and grace.
And so we begin our journey. I invite you to join us. Share with your girlfriends. Everyone has a story to share. If it is your time, share it with us as a guest blogger.
Today is another opportunity to Embrace The Crazy!
