Stepping Forward

We are so accustomed to getting what we want that sometimes we forget there are other options.

I feel like that about the first house I fell in love with, and wanted to live in. 

I wanted it so bad I could taste it. I hoped, wished, prayed, and waited. And not getting that house made me feel bitter for a day or so. 

However, I am lucky and we have a really good realtor who has found me another house to love.

I am lucky that she has read my heart and soul, and seems to understand and know just what I need from the house I want to make into a home for my family. 

I am lucky that on this pathway there are many options and routes to follow. Places to wander and wonder at the grace and love shown to me in this life.
