This blog is a BLC assignment, an exercise in "looking back". The

goes like this::.... If I could wander back in time, what might I change when I was a teen?
My answer:::...... I became involved with dating young men at an early age, and looking back I can see that WAY TOO MUCH time was spent on "nothing".

Nothing of importance .....at that age anyhow.
Dating cost me a LOT of time, $$$ and most importantly, my life priorities.
Lol!! If I can be honest, dating is an education in & of itself...and it can demand your full attention.
I was a budding cellist, an artist, a voice major, involved in a variety of sports such as: swimming, volleyball, basketball & tennis. I was fit and happy.....had a healthy home life too. And yes, I loved to

too.
I am sorry to say that I allowed my feelings for that dating scene to stunt my educational/career growth. Hinds sight is 20/20 ..:::Eh?
It also really wasted my time....I can see that as I look back.
I wish I had begun to seriously date in college. I was ready then.
However, the past is IN the past...:::so glad to leave it there.
Through my relationship with the Lord Jesus, I have learned much.
I am so thankful for His direction. Without His leadership, I'd be lost.
He is my Cornerstone. He gives wisdom liberally of which I am grateful.
He took who I was and transformed me. His grace is amazing!
The future is

BRIGHT

with Promise of Hope.
I look forward to every day being better than the day before. I am so thankful for the valuable gifts of Wisdom & Understanding::...the past holds many stepping stones which have led me Here.
....:::::And "Here" is a FaNTaStiC place to be!
