Right Now…

Right now, I am happy about a bunch of the decisions John and I have made.

Right now, I feel free. Although it seems like half of my life is up in the air [with going back into teaching and adopting Boo being in the beginning stages yet], I feel free. For a few years, well really since I left home, my heart was always stuck with Boo… but listened to wrong advise and didn’t take my own judgements into account. It is freeing to be able to do what I have been wanting to do and I am so happy that John is on board. I think he is more on board than I am at this point.

Right now, our priorities have changed. Drastically. For the better. 🙂

Right now, I can see how many of the things that did not make sense to me a couple or a few years back, now do. It’s crazy.

Right now, I have never been so grateful. Life isn’t perfect, but that’s what makes it so great and worth waking up {stronger and better} each day.

Right now, my only frustration is having to wait. But I do realize, this is the story of my life.  I must need some serious sharpening in this aspect, because everything that I do or have done as of late requires being patient and trusting that all will be well. Patience is not my strongest suit, I must admit.

Right now, with all the waiting and harnessing of my faith and trust into the One Who is the Source of all good things, this verse from the Book of Isaiah Chapter 40 always reassures me:

But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary, and they shall walk, and not faint.

Right now, on the lighter side of things, I am enjoying the cooler temperatures. Fall is my favorite season.

Right now, our weekends comprise of Skype calls with Boo and playing with Google+ Hangout masks and goofing around and long drives to marching band competitions. I enjoy both thoroughly. Anytime I get to hang out with John in the fall [when he is busiest], I make time. I don’t care how sick I am with a cold or how much my allergies are bothering me, I get in the car with him and go to competitions to support him.

Right now, she is the best part of our TODAYs.

Right now, waking up in the morning means getting on Skype either to talk to her or read the messages she leaves us while we were asleep or look at the emoticons she has flooded my chat window with. 🙂

Life is good. Right now.
