Building the Foundation

I've been wondering for months now when they are going to build the house behind us. The plan for it has been in the works since even before we moved in eight months ago. Just when I'd given up hope that they were going to build it this year, all of a sudden work started a couple of weeks ago to prepare the ground and lay the foundation. Now as I look out my window and watch the frame go up, I can't help but reflect on my own life.

Sometimes as I go about my day and week I fall into thinking that it doesn't look like I've gotten anywhere lately in my life. The problem is it's hard to see the results of all of the ground work I've been laying - forgiveness, releasing old emotions, weeding out negative thoughts and energies, and programming new empowering beliefs. Seeing the frame for the house go up in a few short days, I remind myself that in my own life right now I've done the excavation process and am laying the foundation for future successes. I know that this planning and foundation building is not only an important part of the process but the key to building a stable future. So as I move forward, I'm reminded that patience and perserverence will see me through and soon enough I'll be erecting my own framework.
