Perspective is everything!! Man, our perspective on life has changed. Our faces looked much like this picture through the process. If you had known the Waitley family a couple of years ago and farther back, not sure you would actually recognize us. Of course you would know our faces but actually know us? Nope, you would be meeting a stranger with a familiar face. Square peg, round hole. Ever heard that? Yep, that's what we were. We don't fit the round hole mold very well and until we realized this, we were miserable. Always searching for our perfect fit.
We live this crazy, chaotic, busy Full Speed Life. Jason works, I work, we homeschool, we spend time as a family, extra curricular fun for all, and yet, our lives are so much more than what they were when we were trying to fit the round hole mold.
Our faith. Our perspective has changed and I'm sure many would say that we are not "good" Christians. Many would say we are liberal and would question our choices. Get thee behind me round hole pusher (King James makes things sound so much more forceful) because we are who we are and God created us this way. He must have a purpose for us even though we are square pegs.
Be happy as a square peg. Find your perspective. Don't let others tell you what or who you should be and how you should believe. If they do, well, I hope you can get to the point that we are at and say, "stick it in your ear!"
