The storm before the change...

What happened to the calm before the storm I sit wondering to my little self. If it feels like my spirit is spinning in the middle of a storm does that mean that the calm lies ahead of me. At my age, can I realistically expect any calm until my body enforces it many, many years down the road.

I was talking to Kirst tonight as I walked into my moms quite ... wait a minute ... yes it is quiet ... house. I had not realized that I had not really had a moment to be, to reflect and be still. So now that I am sitting here alone in a quiet home I have become so aware of how loud my life has been the past couple of weeks. The list of things that need to be done to prepare to be absent from my home-base seem endless.

I leave for Europe in three sleeps. It always amazes me how things come upon us when we are living. That is why you have to just plan them or the future will always be in the future. And dreams are surely meant to be experienced in the present.

My mind is spinning too fast to listen to my heart right now. I hope and plan to make my trip a time to reconnect with that little ticker of mine. I look forward to listening to it as I gaze at beauties I never could have dreamed existed. Traveling is like entering a fairy tale to me. Heather in Wonderland. I will blog as much as I can and send lots of pictures.

I am doing my best to find the good things in my life and cherish them. I love deeply. I laugh hard (so hard I sometimes snort). I still dream and believe that dreams are meant to be followed. I try to depend on God. I have so much to learn. I hope.
