Our lives are a journey that we walk together not in order to become "good christian women," but rather to draw near to God so that we can reflect His light to those around us. Our stories, our paths, our dreams and our message are all unique. But we hold hands and walk boldly, fearlessly......onward...creating joy, hope, faith and peace in our wake.

Memories

A colleague/friend lost her only son today...suddenly and unexpectedly.  He was in middle school.  She had quit her job at the end of the year to have more time with him and more time with family.  She made memories all over the place.  The three of them traveled and went places and explored.  They lived.
And I realized again why it's so important to me to seize each moment with my family.  To reach out to them and go places and make memories.  I love my kids.  Travel is so integral to our good memories.  Trips.  Adventures.  And this day just solidified for me the "why" of that.  Because....you never know which day or which memory will be the last and you want to leave amazing ones.  Times shared.  Imprints on the heart.  Traditions.  Experiences.  Joys.
It matters to me.  Deeply.
To live without regret.
blessings.
