When Cal was born, I was trying to deal with the fact that my grandmother had recently died. Then I was trying to figure out the whole "mom thing." Then Cal got sick. Not long after Cal started improving, my uncle, who was everything to me, died. It seemed like I was going from big event to big event and never really dealing with any of them. So in July of 2011, I turned 27 and I wanted things to be different. I wanted to be happy. I wanted to be "me" again. I will turn 28 in 50 days. I haven't made any really huge changes, but I am working towards understanding that wherever I am, crisis or no, that's exactly where I am. More importantly, it's exactly where I am suppose to be. My path is not planned by me. Thankfully, it is planned by someone much smarter than me. He is a father, friend, shepherd, and master navigator. Where He leads me I will follow, and wherever I end up, there I will be with Him and that will be a good place.

Wherever you go, There you are
Wherever you go, there you are. Isn't that the most annoying statement you've ever heard? I thought so to until this year. When I was 16, my parents decided I needed to go see a counselor. Most of the sessions were completely pointless (I'm not bitter or anything) and on the last one she said "What you need to remember in life is wherever you go, there you are." That just made me mad. Now that I am a decade older it is starting to make sense.
