I am 25 and even though i am half way through my 20's i still find myself wondering who I am. I am not sure if i should have this all figured out yet or how long it will take but apart of me knows it will be a lifetime till i know the answer to that question... Who am I?
I have many identities yet i am not fully secure in any of them... In all of them i am still growing. Maybe that is what life is, always growing.
I am now a mom of 2! Harper is almost 20 months (over a 1 1/2) and Maggie is going to be 3 months on March 13th. I think this has been the most challenging time in my life thus far. Transitioning from a life that revolved around ME; my wants & my needs, to a life revolving around my family and consumed by my children. Which leads to me to question even more than ever Who I am.
Who is Dena, what does she want from life, where does she want to go, and when does she want to take a shower? ha ha
Life: the process of finding ones self while breathing.
Who are you? You are Dena, wife of Lawrence, Mom of Harper and Maggie, and a Princess of the Eternal King! Who you are is not a one time thing to figure out, it is always changing and evolving as your life changes and evolves and as God changes you. It has taken me several years of trying to find "the" answer to that question to realize that there is no 1 answer, and that is exactly how God made me. I have been many things in my life, but who I am is essentially the same - Jenny, a Princess of the Eternal King. As long as that one thing stays constant and unchanging, the rest of the "Who" question does not really matter. I can be whoever God needs me to be at that time, and love being that person. Enjoy each day of the journey and each moment of being Dena!
