Oh man, what do you want now!!

I have been thinking a lot about the future lately. Sangam and I are finally feeling settled, kind of. We are feeling good about Houston, our jobs and life in general. It seems like for once, we are seeming to be in one place long enough to start thinking about what we want to do next. Then I think to myself, are we thinking about what's next because we aren't used to being stationary in one place, or feeling secure in things?! Of course we are thinking...Grad School?! Babies (not yet!!), Buying a house?!! Traveling/living abroad?!! Let's be honest, Sangam and I can't even decide if we are ready for a puppy yet...sheesh!!

For now, its nice just to think about it, and I am trusting that in the moment; we will be ready for things when we are, and not letting myself jump too deeply into introspective thought. :) It is so comforting to hear others grappling with these issues, or to hear other people's struggles. I know it sounds narcissistic, but just feeling like these thoughts are not alone in us, is something that helps me to feel more content in just feeling them, and not having to act or react immediately.

  1. Jon and I have been thinking a lot of these same things too. Doing so can be completely overwhelming... but, isn't is fabulous how we have a crazy awesome God and crazy awesome husbands to dive into the future with? :-)
