I’ve got a hoodie from Jackson Hole that proudly acclaims, “The journey is the destination.”
And I think about my mom always teaching me to, “find joy in the journey.”
And I’ve been known to sing right along with Miley Cyrus as she sings that making it to the top of the moutain is really, “…all about the climb.”
But right now I’m journeying, and journeying, and climbing, and climbing.
And I’ve got a symbolic rock in my shoe.
And I’m symbolically running out of water.
And my symbolic walking stick just broke in half.
And so I write myself a pity post.
And wallow in my sad sad tale of confusion.
Sigh.
Details to follow…in about 8 months.
And oh, how I can barely wait for THAT blog post.
But in the meantime I’m losing sleep…which I’ve rarely ever done before.
I’m furrowing my brow (which I fear will lead to premature aging).
And I’m praying my heart out.
And so while I know the destination will be good…
And the journey will be worth it…
And the view will be everything I’m hoping for...
Right now climbing just sucks.
That is all.

Sounds like you're doing all the right things. I have no doubt, you'll figure it all out.
i think this is referring what we talked about at subway. and i am with your mom on this one. you'll figure it out. i have no doubt. and it will be a decision that you are so firmly happy you made once it is made. love you.
I'm sorry Becky, I really wish I could be there for you, but I'm here for you instead. In my own 'journeys' I've found things work out, not always how you expect or in your own timing, but they do-though I'm sure you already know that in all your spiritual wisdom. So next time you're home for a visit, let me know, I'm only a couple miles away.
you're right, climbing does suck sometimes. praying for you!
Climbing. Hmmm. Sounds like work to me. I'm sure it will be worth it once you get to the top. Love you.
