Moving Out

I turned thirty on Tuesday of this week. This year was perhaps the best birthday I have ever had. It was the best for so many reasons. My friends and family threw me an amazing birthday party. I was given some great gifts. I was surrounded by people I love all day. Perhaps the biggest factor that made this year better than years gone by is because the day began with me having a chance to live out my purpose.

The twenties are difficult. At least they were for me. I spent the majority of my twenties trying to figure out what direction I was going in life. The best part about leaving my twenties is the fact that I have finally found my purpose. I was created to live love.

Ever since I connected at Safehouse Outreach more than two years ago, that purpose has become clearer and clearer. This year on my birthday I had the privilege of putting my love into action by helping a man move his things out from under a bridge.

My friend lived there for more than a year while he tried to put things back together. I was able to get him into a program where he can live for free for the next 90 days as he saves money to move into his own place. The special thing is I was able to capture about eight minutes of this experience on tape. This is the first thing I have ever filmed while working at SHO.

After having helped my friend that morning the whole rest of the day my spirits were high. I love living love. It is my purpose. Thank you for joining me on my journey as I continue to learn what it means to live love more and more. I hope that through me sharing my journey that you will be inspired to live love as well.

Thanks to all who made me 30^th birthday amazing!
