I kind of dropped off the blogging planet...I think there just has been so much going on in my life that some how I have let writing slip away from me...I have had to search so deep within to try and deal with things on the outside that I feel like parts of me have dissipated...
I feel like a little bit of me has come back...I feel as though seeing and talking to the people who were with me through my time overseas has grounded me again...has made my heart ache for their company...has made the hugs that much more sweeter...I have quality people in my life and I miss them...I miss getting to hug their necks...I miss exploring foreign worlds with them...I miss surviving craziness with them....I miss feeling alive and adventurous....
Sometimes I forget I have longings and passions...I get so caught up in what is going on around me now that I have quit dreaming those deep down heart felt dreams...I can only see what is right in front of me and sometimes that is tough...
My husband told me this week that he thinks it is cute that I am always voicing how "someday we will go here" and "someday we will do this". I think there is still a part of me that remembers how to dream...and I hope she never goes away...

Wow, you just put my heart into words. I miss life overseas, too. And the people I knew while I was there, who walked through it with me. The day I realized I stopped dreaming I think my heart shattered even more. But that realization is what spurs us into dreaming action again. The other day I told Chad, "One day we will move to the bahamas and live there." He laughed. But how much hope is in that statement? it's a dream and it can come true. Don't ever stop dreaming, you have the most beautiful heart.
Maybe that is God's way of showing you that it will happen again one day. But, also remember that you are HERE for a reason, too. So, make the most of your time here and enjoy what adventures you are living in the moment. Who knows... they may be sweeter than any dream!
