I'm not sure what God
called me to be,
But I chose marriage
and motherhood.
The kids grew up and went away,
And years later my spouse died.

Over the years I saw things to build
And He showed me a hammer
and a saw.
I admired oil paintings
And He put a brush in my hand.
I had a book to write
And He sent a friend with a
computer.
When I lacked the words
and inspiration,
My friend and/or my daughter
both encouraged me.
When I had to face
the Long Goodbye
with my best friend,
Another asked if I had read
Conversations With God
by Neale Donald Walsch.
When I read it, a radical new vista
opened before me:
There was an instant recognition
of its truths.
So here I am in my seventh decade,
On a journey of wondering
and searching.
And only She knows where
it will lead me!

June says, "Since September 11, I've had the urge to take stock of my life and to think about which direction I will choose."
