Where has life taken you?
If you’ve lived a considerable amount of time on this earth, probably a great many places.
When I think of mine, there are three places that come to mind. Most notably, my home of New York City. Then Michigan, where I spent my college years. And of course, my current residence of Pennsylvania.
But in each of these places, life has showed up in different ways. Each one leaving an indelible mark on my heart.
New York City showed me the value of living life in the big city, whereas Michigan was just the contrary. It presented a kinder, gentler outlook on life and relationships. And finally, Pennsylvania, which has been a nice blend of both.
As I write this tonight, I am feeling a tug to be closer to family in North Carolina. Whether this be for a moment, or lingers indefinitely, that is a question I’m unable to answer.
The picture above represents a trail that I frequently walked when I resided in a small town outside of Philadelphia.
I did not envision leaving, relocating to Northern Pennsylvania, and forming new relationships-but I have.
There has been great comfort in this shift, but it has had its share of challenges.
Life has a way of doing that.
However, there is no looking back-No regrets.
I am a willing passenger as to where life decides to stop next.
