I live in my head, like so many of you do. I make decisions in my head that are split second. But sometimes that becomes a real problem. Because circumstances in life kind of take its own turns. I have to meditate on whatever it is that's happening. I have to ask my higher power what direction I need to go in, and then I need to move. But I don't do it perfectly. I don't do it near perfectly. It's one of the things that really worries me when I speak in a meeting like this, because I don't want to ever give the impression that I'm there and I've done it and this is what you need to do. I'm just trying the best I can to put one foot in front of the other and be thankful for every step.
