I Nearly Shut Down My Blog



I nearly shut down this blog.  Over the past 18 months my life has been turned upside down and inside out and at many times I thought that "My Turquoise Kettle Life" no longer applied, there were weeks (months) I barely recognized my life.  I've had health issues and my marriage ended.  Where is the life I described to you in my early posts?

Well, that life is not here any longer.  I can see now (with a bit of time and distance) that what has been stripped away was actually toxic for me. I used to have a lot of fears about my health, about medical tests, about food, about life in general.  But recently a freedom so contrary to the self I knew has crept in and I find myself deep in gratitude for all the events which have brought me to this place; my recent health crisis and the changes in my personal life.  Its a personal renaissance.  God is so good.  I am still regaining my health and strength; but rather than creep away I will continue to write and share about my life.  About painting and creating and now more than ever (because life necessitates) living simply.... yet in freedom and joy.

Thank you for stopping in at My Turquoise Kettle Life today.

May your day be filled with joy.
