The Journey

Forget the potholes in the road and celebrate the journey instead!

This is one of my new "Rules to Live By". I need to say this to myself over and over and over... A lot of times I dwell on the past, mistakes, closed doors, things that I should have done differently, etc., when I should really be looking forward to and anticipating my future. I am prayerfully ending this year with the determination to work hard to let the past go and to be thankful for my future. If I learned anything from losing Jamie, it was that our time here is so so short. Too short to be focused on the coulda, woulda, shouldas. I wish that I would have had a chance to make that last phone call to tell Jamie my dream, but I understand now that it would not have changed things. So I have to let it go and make the most of the time that I spend with all of my loved ones on this journey called life.

John 11:25-26
Peacefully enjoying the latest adventures on this journey!
