I am a complicated soul with a history of normalcy, looking for extraordinary.  I thought this statement about myself during a conversation, but it seemed a little too deep and profound for text messaging, so I’ve brought it here to my blog.  I’m probably not alone in thinking of myself this way.  In fact, I’d say many of us find ourselves uninterestingly-normal in the search for something to make us a little more extraordinary.  We don’t wake up every day thinking, “gee, how can I make myself even more plain today?”  No.  We wake up and go about our mundane, day-dreaming about the day when we might have the confidence to branch out and expand our level of normal.  Well I have.  I’ve left most of what I own to travel 13 hours from home to the largest state in the US to pursue career related passions. I’ve branched out and expanded my level of normal only to find that there are still areas in my life that remain unaffected by my leap toward extraordinary!  If only I could follow God on all matters of the heart just as I followed him on matters of how I will spend the days of my life working for Him while I’m here on Earth, just maybe, I might also find someone to share the journey.  Interesting thought.
