This state is finally growing on me.

Moved here in 2006 from Virginia. Thought I'd be there, for like, forever. Technically, the military had deemed my ex ineligible for anymore moves. Out of the blue we were transferred here.

In this place I  experienced  so much pain,  but somewhere in the small, almost dead of my heart, I knew I was not going to move from here until all that was promised to me would be restored. I continually shut down desires to run, to hide, to change where I was.

I chaffed under the uber fit, exercise, go go go, do everything mentality. Especially, when my ex did all of that.  I hated every biker, hiker, camper, tennis player for stealing my quiet life.

My children grew and broke my heart. Although anywhere we lived this still would of happened. It's that part of growing up and letting them make their own decisions.

Everything, and I mean everything I knew about God was torn down and burned to ashes.

All here. In this place.

And now?

The God I've found is greater and better than what I knew. I have the best counselor/spiritual guider I coud ever ask for.

I've started hiking on small excursions.

My roommate grows a beautiful garden that excels our high desert normal status.

My daughter lives here and the newly marrieds are planning on moving here.

My rock of core family visits here four to five times a year.

There's an awesome airport that will fly me anywhere.

My life time desire of being loved unconditionally has been met.

Life is good in this state.

Peace out peeps
