Sweet Memories
Capturing the sweetest moments of my life.....
What is "Home" to you?.....
Recently Ryan and I traveled back to my "home" for Olivet's homecoming. This trip has sent so many thoughts swirling through my mind. Oh how I miss being "home".... I miss the closeness of some of the people I love most! I miss the relationships we could still have in our lives if we lived there. There is so much to miss and long for when you are miles away from home.
Ryan and I moved away within a month of being married. Although this was one of the scariest times in my life it has been one of the best adventures ever! I have learned so much about such a different part of the country from where I most recently grew up. Life and the people in general are much different from "home". I will admit at first I did resist the differences but shortly chose to embrace them. I am so thankful I have. The people we currently are surrounded by have made an incredible impact on us. I am slowly realizing these new friends are turning more and more into family. Although our current location is not what I would have imagined us to end up it is turning more and more into our "home". However for some reason my heart still feels a bit empty inside without our true family close by! My prayer is for God's will and direction to become more apparent in my life. I need to somehow find the purpose...or more effective would be my purpose.
