I don't think I have any really big regrets, but I think, like most parents, I have regrets about yelling too much, not saying "yes" enough, not saying "no" enough, not spending enough time with them, etc. And what will I do about it this year? Keep trying to do better.
22. What single blessing do you want to seek most earnestly this year?
The safe answer here would be that I would want to seek God's blessing on my family, but I'm going with something different. I most earnestly want to seek God's blessing on the decisions I've made in the past few months about leaving my job and starting a new business. I want God to bless my decision to leave my job. I want God to bless the new Director of Children's Ministries and I want God to bless the ministry itself. I also want God to bless me in my new role, running a new company. Please, please, please, bless my new company.
23. In what area of your life do you most need growth and what will you do about it this year?
At risk of repeating myself endlessly and boring you to death, I really need to grow in the area of organization and simplicity. I am committed to doing whatever it takes to make changes. I am reading books about simplicity and I am throwing/giving away more things than I even really knew we had. I wonder if this is a goal that I will ever really think I've attained? Maybe it will always be a "work in progress" kind of goal.
