Life is so unpredictable. A few days ago, Michelle and I were living life, our thoughts and energies focused on the “normal” mundane, everyday things of life. And then on Tuesday, we got news that rocked our world and became THE thing we were focusing on, not by choice, but by default.
Our first anniversary is two days away. And Michelle and I will not be together. She flew out of Philly airport today to be with her family in Arizona. We exchanged love and cards last night, since she was leaving at 5:00 this morning. Of course, we cannot open the cards until Sunday.
I miss her already. She will be coming back on Tuesday, but that seems unbearably far away.
Speed-bumps and pot-holes often flair up on this highway of life on which we are traveling. Sometimes we can see them coming and slow down and navigate them. Other times, we hit them at full-speed, and the impact jars us to the core. Although we’ve noticed some disrepair in the highway leading up to this mile-marker, this was one of those surprise pot-hole.
If you think about us, please pray for us.
We need it.
