Following My Dreams

# 3018

I noticed these bracelet in a locally owned store at The Cotton Exchange in downtown Wilmington NC. I was reading the info on the back while the lady in the store was also telling me about it. I thought how cool is this. Adopting a child out of the foster system is something I always wanted to do and when my husband (now ex) and I were going through the process was when some buried truths started to surface within our relationship. Our marriage ended because of the realizations that I could be alone on my own terms and much happier for it while our children could finally hear what peace in a home sounded like. Foster/Adopting is still a goal of mine, but not until I piece all things together and everything is finally moving in the direction needed to bring another soul into our family. I may or may not pass this on to a total stranger. I may save it for the child I adopt. Who knows, but love and kindness is something that is always taught in my home and every trial we go through in this life is a lesson for us to take to the next one. For the past couple of years I have learned that following my heart’s compass is the direction I should have been in all along.
