Near Maple Drive
Mixed emotions are what I’m experiencing this morning
So. Happy.
So. Excited.
So. Proud.
jumbled up with a sprinkle of uncertainty,
a touch of heartache,
a dab of frightened
because out of our norm, our routine, our safety net, Husband and I will leap
and I tell myself, it’s allllll good !! IT SO IS !! cause it is !!
but
butbutbut …
every single time I pick up my iPhone, a reminder, continues to remind
yep
3 miles from
is where I’ve always lived
Always.
Yes. uh-huh. ok.
There was that brief moment I strayed to Fort Worth, TX
but once, only once, in 60+ years have I ventured far from this town I call HOME
and this,
THIS,
is what concerns my brain cells
as that early hour drumbeat of amIdoingtherightthingamImakingtherightchoice????? marches on and on …
An hour and a half is not that far
Nothing will change
I’m here if I’m needed
I’ll call everyday
I’m not ditching anybody
Appointments, I’ll handle
Schedules, we’ll keep
I’ll jump in the car and be right over
I’ll I’ll I’ll …
& dang universe,
your questions and concerns and who will, what will, what if-s seriously have their grip on my
self
But deep down, where my inner voice whispers,
I know this decision, this departure, this leap onto a path unknown is exactly where Husband and I are meant to be.
& so,
with rediscovered energy,
on this brand new daybreak,
with quietness,
with confidence,
shhhh …
A higher power is guiding,
and follow, we will,
we must.
