From where I stand . . .

An occasional column by Ivy Pittman

I am excited. Not the kind of excitement that is experienced due to an event or a gift or a new love. No I am just excited about life and the ever constant changes that occur when I am looking in one direction expecting one thing and something else happens.  

I’m excited about my development as a woman. I could not have imagined ten, twenty and certainly not thirty years ago what my evolution was going to look like. Nor was I supposed to. Isn’t that what makes life amazing? So when I say I am excited I am proclaiming life’s glory and God’s grace. For even in the midst of disturbances and storms, God is able.  My evolution has taught me to let go and let God. Period. 

If you are reading this I want to say, Thank you for taking the time to check out VisibleWomanOnline. Your interest in this online publication excites me.  I am ever so grateful for our faithful readers and contributors. Yes, I am so excited!

In this column, I will continue to offer my bits of wit, wisdom, and opinions as I see it. I am looking forward to hearing from each and every one you.

Let your voice ring loud!

Peace,

Ivy
