Twenty Years from now

You will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than the things that you did.
So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails.
Explore. Dream. Discover.
~~Mark Twain~~

This blog is dedicated to life and living,

living as an author, living as the wife of a law student, living as an urbanite with Heartland values. Living is about taking opportunities as they arise; therefore, through my personal thoughts and experiences, I encourage my readers to SEIZE THE CHANCE.

Mountain Top Experience

My husbaqnd had a great analohy about our detour up the mountain.

At the top, the scenery is gorgeous. It's ahigh of God's glory. To get there, however, one has to suffer through the twists and turns and near misses with drop offs that can kill.

We want those nountain top experiences in our lives, but they don't come easily. Going up under our own power is treacherois and nould lead to disaster. We need to leave God to the driving, as He knows the way and the safest route.
