It's True What They Say...

Distance does indeed make the heart grow fonder. It makes one really realize what good things they have in their life as well as to be grateful for whatever time they share with ones they love. Being so far from my family and close friends is very difficult on a daily basis, but I can make it through because I know that each and every one of those people care and support me from "Sweet Home Alabama."

So far this has been a great visit home and I anticipate my tirp with the family and Steven to Atlanta tomorrow will top this trip off right. I am so unbelievably lucky and blessed to have such a large support system and so much love from all these people. It catches up to me sometimes and I am a bit overwhelmed. I start to wonder if I am as good to others as people are to me. I surely hope I am.

Life has a funny way of playing out and although everything may seem like a blur, there is a plan unfolding through all the mystery. When I decided to move to Seattle back in January of 2011, I had no idea I would be doing what I am doing now, and looking forward to ANY visit back to the South to be with my family and Steven. This is what family and home is all about. Being able to move away and yet still feel right at home when you come back.

I love my life and yes at times its really hard, but I wouldn't change any of it.

Remember it only takes faith.

Live and love,
Reagan
