The Bridges of Life

While walking a dog recently (shout out @homesweet), I pondered the decision to accept an offer that presented itself. This wasn’t just any offer - this would be working closely in a community that is near and dear to my heart. I decided to take a day to make the decision mindfully. I had given myself boatloads of grace to rebuild. It was time to take the next step. This would be a game-changer regardless.

Life is a few decisions - each changing the bigger picture of the course. This was a moment.

What if I said yes and fumbled?
Could I stick the landing?
I wouldn’t know until I tried.

I swear to all that is holy - I emailed my acceptance, and I wanted to capture a memory. Life was about to change. I had the awareness to sense the shift. I glanced up from my phone and took a picture of what was in my line of vision without thought. Lo and behold, I was at the foot of a BRIDGE.

Tell me there’s something bigger without telling me there’s something bigger.
