Thrive from Chaos

    It’s been a week since we have thrown our first mud racing event and would call it a success. Next week will be my husband’s first desert race on a motor cycle. With school started back up, singing soccer, family dinners, painting, hunts starting soon, we always seem to be running full speed. My husband stated it best last week “We thrive in chaos” and he is right.

    Three years ago was the greatest chaos we had ever experienced, both of his parents critically ill, I was diagnosed with cancer, and can’t count the amount of life changing things such as loss of income, getting rid of our stuff, and the list goes on. This I would consider uncontrolled chaos and it was scary.

    Controlled chaos is much more fun. We are learning to embrace it. Absolutely enjoying every aspect of our lives. Our uncontrolled chaos has given us the gift to embrace the things we can control. I LOVE RACING and everything about it. We had an amazing weekend hosting an event that scared me to do but did anyway.

    I so wish I could share the gifts from our uncontrolled chaos. I absolutely love that we are enjoying every minute of this life we have. In the midsts of some negative comments I got this week, that our Facebook life is far more glamorous than it could possibly be, I have spent some time wondering if I should hold back a little but will refuse this thought from now on. We absolutely are going to love every minute of this life. We earned it and if I can’t find a way to share it, we will enjoy it all ourselves. We are truly happy and it’s a very great gift! It’s funny though, we are truly happy, but I still look back and wonder if I would repeat it in order to get to this state of mind? I honestly don’t know if I could. That is where God’s hands are so trusted. He definitely knows more than I ever will.
