3 Steps Forward No Steps Back

That’s been my motto for as long as I can remember. I can’t believe it’s already August and we are practically wrapping up summer. In just a few short weeks David and I will be packing our luggage and boarding a flight to Cartagena, Colombia. A trip we would have never taken if it weren’t for our circumstances a few months ago. I’m so grateful to visit yet another unforgettable place on this earth. I love traveling and feel so fortunate that we have the opportunity to take this trip together. Looking back to the last two months, we’ve created so many wonderful memories. Outings with friends, dinner and drinks with family, BBQ’s with neighbors, a visit to the OC Fair, walks to the Packing House, and so much more. It really has been great.

I can’t lie and say that I haven’t thought about where we would be, how things would have been, how I would look 8 months along. Of course I think about things like that but I don’t dwell on those ideas. Instead, I smile because they are beautiful thoughts. Soon I’ll be there again. Going through things for the 2nd time…hoping for a better outcome of course. Nonetheless, I believe that time will be soon. Until then, I’m going to savor every moment in all ways that I can. I love life and I’m enjoying the ride.
