Ya, that. It's a big year here for me and the Mister... we are packing up and getting ready to head out on another huge adventure... one that will change our lives forever. For. Ever. We are packing up for longer than we've ever packed up for, we are headed half way around the world, and we will be living life on purpose on the other side of globe. Living life on purpose, that is how we started living our lives two years ago... with a purpose- not letting life happen to us, but making our own lives. On this new adventure, do I know what my purpose will be yet? Nope. I'm sure I'll find out when I get there. But do I have a purpose? Absolutely!
When you are challenged with big things, and you are scared to death, how do you deal with it? What do you do to calm yourself down... get yourself organized... and get on with it?
This is one of my favourite quotes;
Courage is being scared to death, and saddling up anyway - John Wayne
What are you saddling up for this year? What do you need to be courageous about? What are you planning that is scaring you to death?
Share the love,
M.

We are literally preparing for the same thing! Moving from the states to Germany next month and we're in total panic mode about getting every thing accomplished in time for the move!

I am looking at retirement. It's frightening for me. Will I be financially stable? Will I have the money to do the things I want to do? Will I lose my identity as so much of my time is spent at my job?
ReplyDeleteI am sure I will be ok (said in my head) but I don't seem to translate that into my heart.
That is a big step... I hear you about losing your identity... it's a scary thought... but I guess it's also a new chapter where you get to reinvent yourself :) I know all too well how it feels for my brain to feel one way and my heart o feel another... eventually they will get on the same page <3
DeleteHere's to saddling up to new adventures <3
