Pieces of My Puzzle

Have you ever wondered why you are where you are in life? Many times the question that is asked is "How did I get here?" Someone once said, that where you are in life is the sum total of the decisions you have made. I personally believe that there is a great amount of validity to that observation, but I don't believe that it applies to everyone. I say that because I had a life plan and a life goal. I followed that plan and tried to reach my goal with diligence, but in the midst of my efforts I could feel something and even someone changing my plans and pointing me in a different direction. I titled this book "Pieces of my Puzzle" because for a large portion of my life I struggled in my mind to make sense of the chapters and episodes of my earthly experience until I realized that no single part of my journey was meant to define my entire existence. I finally understood that the many pieces of my life are parts of a collective body that's designed to eventually make one big picture. For those of you who are reading this book perhaps you have encountered the same mind battles as I have. Maybe you are in a state of "pieces". I say pieces because that's how life unfolds, it plays out in increments. The tricky part is that these pieces can often cause you to become puzzled about life. They often look like something they are not, but they can also not look like what they absolutely are. Sounds crazy huh? Well that's what I felt like at times while going through the transitions that you are going to read about in this book. It is my desire that as you read my story you will come to a greater understanding of your own. This book only encapsulates a portion of my life. I still have many more chapters to write and so do you! Don't stop until your pieces begin to make a picture. Thank you for taking this ride with me. Welcome to "Pieces of My Puzzle"
