So many ways to break… So little time
I don’t think I can count the number of magical thoughts in my head right now.
Which just made me realize… The kids are out of control. The adult is struggling so I need God.
Whew! To think I was going to write an entire blog about magical thinking. Well, actually the kids were going to write a blog about trying to justify why magical thinking made sense. That would have been awkward.
The kids want to be in Ventura already. I think many of them have helped participate in bolts before. Let’s call them the grass is always greener kids.
Which they completely agree. The grass is always greener.
Or at least it looks like it. I’m not saying that Ventura doesn’t suit us better. I think it does. It just isn’t perfect.
We will change external Zip codes, but my internal one will be about the same. I’ll still have all my phobias and addictions. I’ll still be me.
And that’s okay. We don’t need a magical place to fix everything.
God’s love is the ‘fix.’ And we can find that anywhere.
Okay, okay, okay, He does seem a little more obvious during a beach sunset, but you get my point







It’s so exciting seeing you grow by leaps and bounds every day. You’re an inspiration!
