We're livin' in a charmed life.

You never realize how much STUFF you have until you begin to pack it into nice neat boxes. However, there is something very freeing knowing that we only have space for a few things as we make the trek to California.

It is exciting and very real that we have given up all of our security (job, house, family, and friends).

It hurts to think that we aren't going to be able to have the luxury to experience many of these common things of our lives that we've so easily taken for granted.
Many things run through my mind as I realize it is only a few short days until we leave and "ride off into the sunset..."

The biggest one of all is, what happens if we fail?
Why do we depend on our successes to know whether or not we are worth anything?

So clearly, I have some learning to do....

madly deeply,
bekah

  1. Hello my new blogging friend! I'm so glad you have jumped on the bandwagon, now I can spy on you whenever I miss you (which will be daily). SO PROUD of the decision that You & Gerald have made to pursue your dream of living on the west coast! We will visit as soon as we can & look forward to hearing of all your new blessings!

  2. Hi there! I am excited to follow along and see what God has in store for you two. You won't fail! If you take God with you, there is no failing! Things may be rough and trials are bound to come in life but you will learn, you will grow and you will become more of who God intends you to be. I am going to miss you, but as I have always told you, God is going to do some great things in you and through you! Blessings as you as you soon begin this amazing journey. Love you lots!
