I cried a good cry

In Mississippi good and great are used interchangeably with a lot and big. When I say I cried a good cry I cried a lot this morning giving my loved ones hugs and kisses. Saying final good-byes are hard. I am sure that I will see them again, but they won't see the same Brittney Lewis when I return. This trip is a gift from God and what he has set for me no man can take away from me. I was 5 minutes late to check my bags under the plane and TSA wouldn't allow me to board the plane.  Beyond the ugly attitude of the United Airlines agent, that flight just wasn't for me. But here I am in the terminal and I am leaving starting a new chapter in my life. I am so blessed to be loved by so many people. I have a support system like no other and I promise not to let you down. I love you all and although I won't be the same Brittney when I come back. I'll change a "Great Deal" for the better!

    As I look back now I’m so glad that none of those situations worked out. I’m so glad God closed those doors because they forced me to find the right path for me. If you’re in this situation and you feel like doors are closing all around you and you are frustrated, here’s something I’d like you to think about: Life can be like a living maze. You know what a maze is. In a maze, you start out at one end and your objective is to find your way to the finish line.

    Many times you may make a turn and hit a dead end and you have to go another way. Just like life, that door closing on you sends you another way. It doesn’t mean it’s not going to happen, it just means you need to go another way. If you keep moving, eventually you will get to where you’re going.

    Another thing that is important when you’re in a maze, as in life, is to remember where you have been. If you get turned around and confused in a maze, in order to get out, you have to remember the dead-ends that you have already hit. Just like in life you have to remember all the doors that were closed so you don’t waste time going that way again. If you want to get to your dreams you can’t expect to get there by doing the same thing and going to the same spots. You must try something different. I’m not saying give up on your dream, I’m saying try another path to the same dream. Same maze, same dream, but take a different direction to get there.
