Out of Touch

This describes me at this moment in time.  At least when it comes to blogging and a little bit of life.  I am completely and utterly 'out of touch'.  And I am finding it very difficult to get back in touch. 

Work has still been crazy beyond belief, at least for me.  And life in general has gotten a little stressful, but not necessarily a bad stressful.  It's just that by the time I get home, make a half hearted attempt to make some dinner, try to workout, pick up the house a little bit, all that fun stuff, all I want to do is just sit down and not think about anything or anybody.

I'm 'out of touch'.  Unmotivated. 

As I looked at my life and tried to figure out why I feel so 'out of touch' I came around to the realization that my life is so great and amazing and I should really reach out and touch.  I need to get out of myself and into what is around me.  I need to see.  I need to hear.  I need to feel.  I need to TOUCH!

I think this time of year makes us all stop and ponder what we have and how very blessed we are.  Sometimes it just takes a little more thought with some of us, like me!  Really I am not that bad, most days I thank God for each wonder in my life, but once in a while I sink into myself, not in misery, maybe just pulling back from life to reassess what it is a I really have.  You look and you see so much of what everyone around you is so very thankful for and they let you and the world know it.  They tell you, 'I am thankful for.....'.

'Out of Touch'.

Is this me?  Most of the time, NO!  Is it OK to step back once in a while?  I don't know.  But I do know that it is time for me to jump back into life, be thankful each moment of each day for the wonders and blessings that God has given me.  It's time to take my life and love and hug it for what it is and for what I have been given. 

It's time to be thankful and to thank God.  I am so blessed and I am so amazed at what He has given me.  As the words go in a favorite hymn, 'I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me.'  Not the whole hymn, but just so you all know, I am amazed and I am thankful. 

I am not the most analytical person in the world but these are just a few of my thoughts right now.  It's time to step out of myself and to touch someones life.  Hopefully for the better.  I will find the opportunity.  And I will touch someones life.

Love to All,
