I have a big dilapidated box in my garage filled with journals that I’ve kept since I was in my 20’s. Whenever my husband and I survey the garage prior to making a dump run, my journal box is always given a pass without any thought whatsoever. Although I haven’t opened the journal box in probably 7 years, I could never part with it. It’s the documentation of my personal journey through life. I appreciate how the written word provides me with time to get in touch with and articulate what I’m feeling. I love how revisiting my written words brings me back to a place in time.
I’ve maintained this blog that you’re visiting for over 15 years. I think some of my richest writing is buried from years ago. I invite you to scroll through the Categories section of the right sidebar to drill down into what topics are of interest to you.
My other effort towards sharing inspiration include my two self-published books about career change, Inner Architect: How to Build the Life You Were Designed to Live and Unleashing Your Soul.
Thank you for stopping by. I would love to hear from you.
Best,
Susan Hanshaw
Digging for Meaning 
Thanks to Face Book I found your site. I’ve been unemployed for several months after being in the same career path for 20 years, made a major move 3,000 miles to find work, ended a 12 year relationship with a man that wasn’t good for me and I have financial trouble. I am adventuring into unknown new territories. Your inspiring advice wil help me move forward with faith. Thank You!

I came across your Blog when doing a word search on a particular idea I was working on for a sermon. I want to express to you my thanks for insights and wisdom. Reading through a few of your writings has been a blessing to me and I look forward to reading more at a later date as I have the time. I also intend to purchase your book “Unleashing Your Soul.”
The Lord has given you a gift and you are responding well in using that gift for His glory.
God bless you and again, thank you.
