I'm gonna reel you in.

There is this Nancy Hanson song that goes a lil somethin like this.. And I'm gonna reel you in... reel you in, although you're puttin up a fight baby, in the end I'm gonna win, cause I'm gonna reel you in... reel you in, and with a heart that's strong and steady I won't be givin in, I'm gonna reel you in.

So whats the point of me telling you that?

OK! I'll tell you!

While ice fishing a few days ago I didn't catch a DARN thing. And honestly fishing is a patience building hobby. And Ice fishing is even worse. I found myself drifting in thought about hos ice fishing could be compared to life.

We're not going to always catch the biggest prize winning fish right away. And every ones fish represents something different... A career, love, school, an answered prayer..... on and on....

There are many who will give up on their big catch. Many will take what they get on the first bite. Fishing and life takes patience.

Am I rambling?

As I was having this slice of genius thought, I began thinking about my big fish! My catch is many things! And I have a very VERY hard time with being patient. I want SO badly to have the life I know is waiting for Coop and I. It's out there waiting for me to come find it!

I was told a couple days ago by a good friend that in order to have that life I dream of I need to live the life I currently have. Make sense??? OK!

I realize and know I have to work for that life. Keep moving on! Keep working and striving for what is out there for us. And day by day I will get closer to who I am supposed to be. God knows who I am capable of being. He knows what I need.

And with a heart that's strong and steady, I'm gonna reel it in.
