A little over a week ago we got back from vacation. We went on a cruise (shocker) and had a great time. This time around, however, I wasn’t as sad that it was over as I have been in the past. I didn’t dread returning to normal life but rather, in a strange way, looked forward to it. I realized while on this cruise that I am very content in life. I have no real complaints with where I am in life. Would I like a higher paying, high profile job, sure. But that’s not where God has me right now so I’m content doing what I’m doing. I’m happy with my marriage. I’m happy with the direction my life is heading. I’m happy that in March our family will be growing with the addition of Caleb. I’m content. I’m where God wants me to be and God is good. I have so much to be thankful for. In the words of Mark Twain, The secret of success is making your vocation your vacation.' If you look forward to your vacations so much that you miss out on life then what type of life is that. Vacations are great, time to relax and rejuvenate, but coming back to real life should be exciting too. I’m so thankful for the life I have!
Blogs are more fun with pictures, so here’s one from our Cruise…
