Am I running my race?


I am a mom first and forever.  I am a marketing person always.   Yet, in today's world of technology with a tweets and likes and emails and....    It can be overwhelming at times.   The distractions of everyone wanting attention can sometimes drown out my own thoughts.  

I hear, "Oh, look at what they are doing?"   "Hmmm, that is a new technology, should I use it?"  "Wow, that person really has it together, should I follow them?" 

Then, somewhere in the midst I think,  "Am I running my own race?"   We all need to listen to our hearts.  We need to hear the voice that says, "THIS is where your spirit is."    A dear friend recently told me "There's only one Holly!".   Isn't that true?   No one else has my experiences.   Just like there is only only Paula or Sara or Peggy or Rick or Carson or Amber or Randy.   Each of us has our own talents, our own well to draw from that makes us shine in our own right.

So, I will still listen.  And, I will slow to make sure what I hear is in line with what is in my heart.
