Adventures that Lay Ahead

Today is one of those days I want to throw caution to the wind and travel far away with Hans... I want to pack just a few things and then go. I don't know where I would want us to go and my intense logic is presently holding me back from this whim but right now I crave an adventure. It is interesting how loans from college and stuff... so much stuff can just get in the way. In some ways I am confused by how much of this stuff I have accumulated in my twenty three years on this earth. There are people who live on a dollar a day and in a place smaller than my and Hans studio apartment... I am happy. I am happy being married to Hans... I am happy to be God's child. I am happy to know that I am physically able to do so much and to have adventures. I am also convinced that someday soon Hans and I are going to take some grand adventure that will change us both... bond us even more deeply... challenge us intimately and also be a great story to tell eventually. I love that I'm married to someone with whom I can share adventure. I have grand career ambitions and personal goals. I am deeply committed to the belief that I can change the world and will. With this in mind sometimes I wonder if I'll change the world in a practical way or by being impractical and doing something adventurous and out of the ordinary.

{It is going to be interesting to see where God decides to take Hans and I and find out what sort of adventure this life is going to be. I am very grateful to have such an amazing partner in life.}
