Destiny is Awaiting

My grandpa passed away a year ago April 5...June 12 would have been his 93rd birthday.  He had a great life.

After he passed away I began my fascination with heaven.  I have been driven to know more about it.  It has actually been a great experience for me.  I've learned a lot and continue to as I explore it further.  My next venture into heaven is to read The Shack.

You are probably wondering now what that has to do with MRKH.

I could probably spin this in a lot of different ways here.  Talk about God's decision for my body, what MRKH means for me in heaven...

Really what I am thinking about is my work-life balance (what is my life's purpose?  I don't want to die at my desk).  I am struggling to maintain any semblance of balance right now because of my workload.  The executives keep shifting and reorganizing and it is driving me batty.

My balance right now is way off.  I am so swamped with work right now I want to bite someones head off.  My boss knows no balance.

What I find interesting is how people are able to use their spouses and kids as excuses to get out of stuff.  I seriously think that some people use them as crutches.  It makes me want to be with someone or have kids sometimes.

Maybe that would provide the balance I need.  I don't know.  I feel really stuck right now.

If I look back on my dating life, I can honestly say at this point it has been my MRKH that has kept me single in my life.  At this point, I feel ho hum about sex.  I could take it or leave it.  I hear that's not a normal reaction to sex.  I don't think that in the time I have been capable of it that it's ever been that spectacular.  I'm finding in my 30's I am able to relax easier but the overall experience is not generally something I crave.

Sometimes I think that being with someone, I would be able to balance life out a little easier.  That person would have their goals and I would have mine and we could blend them together and work toward something common.

Then there's the other side of me that's happy being the only decision maker for me.  I have this huge drive to leave the city and live in the country or in a small town.  It's not always the same dream of your partner.  I don't want to give that one up.

So I would say that my mind is in a place of limbo.  Limbo about the career that I have made and limbo about the relationship I never had and I don't think I will.
