Making My Move

Well all good things come to an end.

An old cliche but true so I cant reinvent the wheel

I have reached a new plateau in my life, and it is time to move on.
I must be finding new headquarters where I can think and have adequate and uninterrupted time and place to write and contemplate. After all, I am a thinking man.

For the past three years I have been partnered with a person who has been very good to me, but not particularly good for me. Why. you ask?

For one thing, I have been, to use a bible passage, "Unevenly yoked". I mean we both meant well and wanted to contribute to our relationship, but I think we will both admit that there was more "me" in the relationship than "us". Even Dr. Phil will tell you that is not a good formula.

So having realized this, we must each find our own way again. Only that is a tall order for those of us looking back at many past milestones. As my great and intellectual friend, Esther, will tell you we all say " Hey we did all that and climbed all those mountains and met all those goals in life. Isn't it time we coasted through from here to the grave??"

I suppose the answer to that is once we stop struggling with life. Simply put: It is over!!

Yes folks that means Life is an endless and constant struggle. and there are no easy paths or endless retirement joy rides. Just like the rest of the animals God put on this lovely planet with us. We struggle each day from sun up to sun set for survival. Sometimes there are moments where we just can sit back and look up at the sky and say. " God You made me such a lovely Day. Thank You and Praise You for Your unconditional Love and Grace". Then we can go right back to hunting and gathering life support and sustenance.

As for me, I need to be moving on to look for new shelter, and Peace, and a closer relationship with my God and my Provider.

So I am on the road again, looking for new digs and a greater Peace.
