I saw this and it moved me so much that I shed quite a few tears 😭

Me: Hello God.
God: Hello...
Me: I’m falling apart. Can you put me back together?
God: I'd rather not.
Me: Why?
God: Because you're not a puzzle.
Me: What about all the pieces of my life that fall to the ground?
God: Leave them there for a while. They fell for a reason. Let them be there for a while and then decide if you need to take any of those pieces back.
Me: You don't understand! I'm breaking!
God: No, you don't understand. You're transcending, evolving.
What you feel are growing pains. You're getting rid of the things and people in your life that are holding you back. The pieces are not falling down. The pieces are being put in place. Relax. Take a deep breath and let those things you no longer need fall down. Stop clinging to pieces that are no longer for you. Let them fall. Let them go.
Me: Once I start doing that, what will I have left?
God: Only the best pieces of yourself.
Me: I'm afraid to change.
God: I keep telling you: YOU'RE NOT CHANGING! YOU'RE BECOMING!
Me: Becoming, Who?
God: Becoming who I created you to be! A person of light, love, charity, hope, courage, joy, mercy, grace and compassion. I made you for so much more than those shallow pieces you decided to adorn yourself with and that you cling to with so much greed and fear. Let those things fall off you. I love you! Don't change! Become! Don't change! Become! Become who I want you to be, who I created. I'm gonna keep telling you this until you remember.
Me: There goes another piece.
God: Yes. Let it be like this.
Me: So... I'm not broken?
God: No, but you're breaking the darkness, like dawn. It's a new day. Become!! Become who you really are!!"

Tomorrow, 10/19/2018, is 5 years since my baby sissy left this earth to be with Jesus. The grief is still VERY real, I’m sure especially my Mom and Dad, John Hofford. I miss my sissy Shelly Hofford, Shelly Hofford Memory Page. Overwhelmed by sadness 😢

Merry Christmas everyone! Hey, I was wondering if I could ask you to do me a HUGE Christmas favor. Would you mind going to this website and voting for me as the Best of the Best Orthodontist in Castle Rock. I know many of you are my patients and patients' families who have become a part of MY family. Castle Rock has been so good to this practice, especially with all the tragedy my family has endured.

It's a super simple form and won't take but literally a minute or two to fill out. I sure appreciate it! Here's the website: https://castlerock.awardservice.org/Nominate.aspx
