I was reading some Thoreau the other day - no lie - and came across a quote of his that read:
"Do not look back unless that is the direction you intend to go."
I think I really needed to hear that. Not that I have been looking back, but I think when the future is new and different, one cannot help but look in the direction of what is familiar and find comfort there. Usually, at this time of the year, we are back at "home" in Wisconsin, so being out here now is different and new.
I guess maybe I was looking back. Or rather was looking for that safety & security we associate with whatever it is we consider "home" to be. Back to that good ol' comfort zone again.
Before we left our old house (which is what we call it now and have to catch ourselves and NOT refer to it as "home" anymore) a friend of mine sent me this great text that read: "Outside your comfort zone is where your Life happens."
And life out here in Utah IS definitely happening!
Stay tuned.....
