Learning more and more to rest and trust in the midst of this transition part of life as we prepare to move, as I’m looking for jobs and houses, as our children are closer to leaving the nest, and as midlife hormones hit harder and harder. Someone told me to find value in the process, to not only look for the end result. Finding joy in the journey is all part of that valuing the day to day process of this time of growth and change. I read this the other day, and it’s so fitting: “One of the tragic things I know about human nature is that all of us tend to put off living. We are all dreaming of some magical rose garden over the horizon-instead of enjoying the roses that are blooming outside our windows today.” (Dale Carnegie)
