Last night I lay in bed thinking just how lucky I am. In the past few years I've found reasons not to be grateful...like the fact that I bought my condo in 2007 and that it's worth over $100,000 less than I paid for it or when I lost my job, had a tree fall through my roof, or when I was in my car accident.
But when I think of the truly wonderful blessings in my life, I'm so amazed and grateful. Since I was 16, I have done so much traveling! I've been to Alaska, Canada, Hawaii, Mexico, the Carribean, the Bahamas, England, France, Holland, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, Germany, and Ireland. Soon I'll be going to Costa Rica with Ben on our honeymoon.
After losing my job in 2009, I was given the wonderful opportunity to work at Chaminade Middle School and just a few months later I met Ben. Since meeting Ben we've gone on so many adventures but the greatest adventure has been the adventure of our hearts. And the greatest adventure of all lies ahead...in 5 days we will be man and wife. It's really all I can think about now and I am so happy. Most of my early 20s were spent wondering when I would meet this man who I'd spend the rest of my life with. Most of my diary entries were about my desire to meet my future husband...and now I'm getting married. It's the answer the years of prayers and I am so joyful. <3
