New Beginnings

Ah...wow, here I am! I have officially deleted both Facebook and MySpace accounts and have now moved into the great big blogging world! Pretty exciting. I didn't realize how nerve racking it actually is to delete online accounts! I actually had to take a deep breath as I clicked the button that would deactivate me from a world(s) I have come to know so well and connected with so many people through. However, it was almost thrilling because it symbolized a new beginning in alot of ways too. Originally, I had thought about deleting those two accounts because I just wanted to be more proactive with my time - I don't have alot of it and I realize that I want to make the time I do have count. I was also challenged over the past two weeks to somehow push myself to do something that would "physically" separate me from places/people/things that were holding me back. I came to the realization that WE (or "I" in this case) have to take control of our own actions. I was talking to a friend of mine tonight about the sacrifices we make in order to gain something greater. And, as silly as it sounds, letting go of Facebook and MySpace are challenging not because I'm an internet junkie, but because of what they have come to represent to me over the past two years. And so, even though it kinda stinks a little, I feel like the Lord is pushing me to let go of "it" in order that my hands may be open for what He wants to fill them with. Does that make sense?
Anyhow, so, this is my blog. Brand new baby and ready for a fresh start. I plan on updating fairly regular, once or twice a week maybe (I guess that counts as regular). I just want this to be a place where I can give the world a little update on the happenings of Kelly G. If that's interesting to you, great, if not, great. But, in an effort to stay in touch with those I have left behind on Facebook or MySpace, this is where I can be reached - this and my email.
Thanks for listening.
Much Love.
