Summer Sun and Fun and Trusting the Process

Summer Sun and Fun and Trusting the Process

July. My favorite month of the year! And ah, yes, I must confess—it perhaps just might have something to do with the fact it is the month of my birthday, too.

But this month always seems to call out to my soul to kick back somewhat, let go of so many “to-dos” and savor the glory of being more.

As I walked into town the other morning, Gidget rolling along in the stroller, I felt like I was floating on clouds— and I found myself feeling so grateful for this small town I live in.

I thought about how we plan to leave here someday when we reach closer to our mid-60s – head for somewhere that is warmer all year long.

And my heart ached for just a moment at the thought. I don’t know if I can leave here. This place I’ve called home for almost 30-years.

But life has a way of working out I just as quickly reminded myself. No need to feel bittersweet or rush ahead in my mind to unknowns.

Time will move along and before I know it, everything will fall into place just as it is meant to be.

My job for now….to let life unfold and trust the process.
