Complete

Definition of Complete 

a: having all necessary parts, elements, or steps

As a child, I thought like a child. I have to admit that my childish thinking lingered, lingered on well into my adulthood.   But we only know what we know. Right?

As a young girl, I had my dreams.  Dreams of my night in shining armor, sweeping me off my feet and setting up house with white picket fence and all.  Then adding to that fairy tale dream, our babies and our family would be made perfect, would be complete.

Your dreams may have looked different but completeness is what we all dream of.  In our families, careers and material possessions.  When we have________ we will be complete.

And then I lived that dream and the dream didn’t come to completion as I had planned.  I think that you will know what I’m saying without me having to say it, because you also, I’m sure, have lived that dream.

I had all the necessary parts, the elements were all laid out and my steps were taken and then I realized, “I was living the dream of my making.  Trying to come to completion of my dream.  I was determining the steps and those steps were not those of God”.
