Yesterday’s Oprah was very poignant and I saw myself sown the road if I continue on the road I’m on now.  The women featured on the show were all at least 10 years older than me.   But I felt their pain.  I understood that lost feeling.  Not knowing who you are, feeling like you just fulfill the roles that are handed to you.

  I feel as though I’ve made a start.  I have thoughts in my head about change, about being the person God created me to be.  To make a difference in the world- to be a lighthouse and let God’s light shine through me.

But at times I feel so lost . . . I feel unimportant and unvalued.  I wonder at my core “Who am I?”  This was Oprah’s “homework” for everyone last night.  To really think about it and come up with an answer.  Right now I’m stumped.  Things come to mind like mommy, Christian, wife, quilter but as Oprah pointed out, these are all things you do.  Not who you ARE.
