As dusk sets into the earth with only a faint glow hovering just above the skyline. I sigh as I climb into my car. My lab has claimed shotgun. His panting wide grin welcomes me as I sit in the drivers seat. I look in the back seat and see all of our belongings piled into the car. A small picture is taped to the dash; a small reminder of what I’m leaving behind. I force myself not to look too far back. I look instead straight ahead to the open road. What ahead of me will be full and exciting. I’m not sure what it is yet, but I know it will be better. It always is.
I have always had a plan and for once I don’t and its a little scary, but I am compelled to move forward. What better way to work on trust than to merge forward on this adventure called life and see where God leads. I have no more attachments except to the lab next to me that sniffs the cracked open window in hopes to catch a whiff of a scent only he would love. My mind full of anticipation and my heart full of dreams. Today anything goes. It’s time to explore all this life has to offer before I pass into eternity.
I could be here today and gone tomorrow. But at least I will have lived.
