Now that I'm 32 . . .

I Thank God more frequently for the blessings of family and friends and life.

I Hurry often but realize the value in slowing down and soaking in life's delights.

I Insist on finding value and purpose in everyday happenings.

I Raise my voice louder in song, in laughter, in authenticity.

I Think more critically of what I have been taught in the past.

I Yearn for an encompassing joy in the lives of my children.

I Try to trust God's sovereignty no matter what the circumstance.

I Wonder how much wiser I'll be when I'm 82.

I Owe so much of who I am to those who have had a part in my life.
