Because I promised

-

 I don't have anything important to say. But I promised I would write and post every Thursday and I am out of alignment with that promise.

We're looking for a house, and finding where our family will live long term, while also seeking to LIVE LIFE NOW, here, where we are right now. Because life doesn't stop moving just because we don't have a part of life worked out yet.

What do you do to live life, even when not everything is figured out yet?

I don't normally do this, but I think I may more often. It's a public park. There are lots of other families here. Most of the parents are right by the playground or even on the playground mulch supervising and helping their children should they have the slightest difficulty. . . And I used to. I am studying; out in nature, under the tree my oldest picked for us to sit under for lunch, before being abandoned for the playground and the new friends waiting there. Most parents are monitoring their childrens interactions with all the other children on the playground, ready to offer quick correction if there is anything in the slightest wrong with their behavior. I used to do that (most days I do/did). I don't think that works long term. I hope I remember to not do that. The picnic table I am sitting at has a half e...

The Real Challenge I wandered, completely lost, into the wilderness. I found the a Lord there. Then I found myself. That wasn't the hard part. The real challenge was keeping who I found with me when I walked back into "reality."
