J is for JOURNEY

Ralph Waldo Emerson stated that "life is a journey, not a destination." 

With that in mind, I regret to tell  you all that I will have to take
one of the forks in the road and temporarily leave ABC Wednesday behind. 
 

Unfortunately, my new husband's health is such that I want to spend every possible moment
with him as we will journey together towards the destination that God may have in mind for him.
  We don't know how long the journey will be, but as we travel this difficult path,
we don't want to miss out on one minute of the ride. 
 
One day I hope to return to be part of this amazing group of people whose paths have crossed
 to share life's ups and downs, hopes, and dreams.  If possible, I will pop in now and then
to let you know how things are progressing. 

In the meantime, your prayers would be gratefully accepted.

And so we begin our journey

  21. Dear Leslie, I hope the best for your husband's and your new journey. However it goes, I think you will be happy that you followed it together. I did something similar with the first husband and although his ended with the bus ride to the stars, our journey together was one of much love and peace.
