It's not so much that we're afraid of change or so in love with the old ways, but it's that place in between that we fear... It's like being in between trapezes. It's Linus when his blanket is in the dryer. There's nothing to hold on to. Marilyn Ferguson But oh, how glorious that flight can be when Christ-led! As I prayed this morning with two women I just met, hands clasped together, earnestly petitioning our Father, I felt such peace. I'm overjoyed at the many rich experiences I'm being blessed with during these months of uncertainty. On these days I often find myself thinking, "I'm the luckiest girl in the world!"
It's been ages since I updated you all on my progress. I'm still in Denver. My cousin and his family graciously invited me to stay on with them, which I did until this past week. I'm now staying at a neighbor's home, housesitting for the next several weeks. I've been working long hours on a temp assignment that will continue until I leave. It's really feast or famine, so I'm taking advantage of this opportunity to get back in the black while I can!
It's autumn and I'm thrilled with the brisk mornings and talk of snow by the month's end. I drove to the mountains this weekend to see the aspens in their glory. I'm 
determined to savour every new experience that comes along, to live richly, breath deeply. I'm loving the church I'm attending, and am participating in three Bible studies. (Amazing what one can do when not in school!) It's tempting to want to stay on indefinitely, perhaps permanently, but I long to continue on in my journey, especially to spend time with those friends and family I've yet to see. I'm excited to see what experiences are yet to be had before I settle in somewhere. It's certainly very possible that I might make this my home after I complete my trip.
