Reinventing yourself!!

Today has been a day. It wasn't a good nor a bad day. It was simply a day. There are many reasons why today was just numbing. I bounced back and forth from the daily mind games that I create myself. I spent moments of "good" and I spent moments of despair. So the universe pretty much balanced itself out. And in doing so I decided to reinvent myself. I decided it was time for me to do what I "know" I was sent here on earth to do. Drum ROOLLLLLLL Please....

I was taught many years ago that I myself am a Teacher. My mom always told me to go to college and be a teacher and I hated that thought. And I still do. I learned today that teaching doesn't mean you sit in a classroom and bully :) kids around and try to coerce children or teenagers to be sheepoles. Definitely "Teaching" has a higher law. Teaching is something I think we as adults forget, that we do this everyday of our lives. When we teach we live. When we live we teach. It is something that was taught to us in the Spirit World. We were taught and then sent to earth to teach.

I have decided to more or less reinvent myself through writing once again. I have been taught by some of the greatest teachers. And respectfully I have paid teachers at colleges to teach me. I have been taught by fellow classmates who are young enough to be my children. I have been taught by "goodly parents". I have opened myself to be taught by family members & friends that despise me and I have been taught by family members & friends that love me anyway. I will add I have been taught by the Holy Scriptures and the teachings of the Latter-Day prophets and apostles. I was taught by a mission president, Lynn G. Robbins, who spoke @ our last General Conference meeting on "Which way do you face?" But I have been taught most graciously by a loving husband and 6 beautiful children who have given me my share of opportunities to be taught.

After speaking to my oldest daughter this weekend, regarding a concern she had, I realized that I must step up to what Carol Whitaker calls, "Living your truth Authentically". I now know that teaching youth does not necessarily mean a classroom setting. It doesn't necessarily mean at Sunday School. It means I start something new. I need to start helping the youth see & learn their potential. And my path is now clear what my goal is for the youth of our society. And so the reinvention comes with the clear understanding of my destiny. My new ability to live my truth authentically. It doesn't mean that I won't stop the chaos in my life...I'm thinking I might add to it. LOL. But I'm really excited for this new journey with my Daughters & my sons.

So I dedicate this post to Kylee Renae for always teaching me and having the courage to always know "Which way you face".
