Truth be told...

So, I had 3 different conversations, with 3 different people about THE SAME exact thing today. My life. Weird thing being... I didn't bring it up any of those times. All of them ask me the same thing... are you happy/content where you are? This got me thinking... I know, I know, scary! I went back over the past couple years in my head. I am at a job that I honestly took as a "tie me over, while I look for something else". I planned on staying for a few months, and then finding something in the business world. Well, 3 years later... here I am. For my boss that may be reading this ( no worries, i do love my job!) ha! People started to ask me when I was starting college, "What do you want to be?". I have never had a good answer for that. I love so many different things. It is the running joke of how many "dream jobs" I have had. At some point I wanted to be: a teacher, a cook, a receptionist, a missionary, an organizer, a stay at home mom and preschool director. I still cant decide which one I love the most.  If I am really honest, I love the simple things in life. I decided on a business degree, because i love office work. Like the kind that everyone else hates. I love the tedious, time consuming, organizing jobs that happen in an office.
But on the other end... I absolutely adore kiddos. That is one thing i hope my future holds. Many kids of my own one day! So, being a preschool teacher isn't half bad. There is not much better in this world then 19 kids each week loving me and I am sure fearing me at different times. Is it what I planned to be doing in life? Heck no! So, i get the question ALL the time.."why do you work in a preschool when you have a business degree?". Well, people... I have no idea. All i do know, is I enjoy my job and MOST days there isn't anywhere else I would rather work.
I also thought today about my relationships and friendships over this past year! WOW! Life certanitly took me some weird places. But, as i look at where i am today...it almost all makes sense. Many situations are for sure in the "Thank you Lord column". Things seem to be changing daily in this area of my life. I am realizing that life happens very quickly and i need to sit back and enjoy things/people while they are here. People change... I change. But, I am very thankful for the handful of friends that stick through all of lifes ups and downs.
So, to make this long rambling blog come to a close. Truth be told...  I am very happy! I don't understand where I am going and sometimes I dont like the answers I get. But, hey... it is in God's hands, and i am perfectly content with that. And, I am choosing to enjoy this ride.
