we're waiting for you

I'm still in the processing stages of the next great adventure in my life. It feels like forever away, but I know it will sneak up quickly - as time always seems to do. If there is nothing else I've learned by this point, I have learned that the only way to get through this life is to roll with the punches. As much as everyone would like us to say "oh yes, we planned this" I can't, won't - and don't care too. I have given up on planning my life around someone elses ideals, or setting expectations for myself that are impossible to attain. I'm learning to find comfort in my own rituals and decisions, instead of holding a cloud over my head because it doesn't match what somebody else might think is right or just. This next chapter of our lives is going to be a challenge, without a doubt - but it does not mean we will not flourish. Like anything in this life we will be met with obstacles and barriers - but like I have proven time and time again, we will conquer all. 9 weeks down, 31 weeks to go.
