I feel these things too at the mom...Thank you Jody. I feel these things too at the moment. My emotions seem almost a little flat because it's as if the anxiety is canceling out the joy and the joy is canceling out the anxiety and so I'm just calm. I have 104 days to go until BAP, which would mean I would start training in September, like you but I am definitely taking life, not even a day at a time but an hour at a time and just enjoying everything that God is giving, hoping desperately that what I hope for accords with his will and even what he wills accords with my hopes. <BR/><BR/>love RachRev R Marszalekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01831340057673771787noreply@blogger.com
