Give Thanks...Into The Storm


 I spent the last sixty hours venturing into a storm...

Literally, and figuratively.

Friday morning my wife, son, and I loaded up the van and traveled six-hundred miles west. Cloudy skies followed us and for much of the trip, rain, wind, and some hail became our travel companions. Yet, we continued to an unknown future.

Several hours and several tanks of gas later, we exited the road to a smaller road, then to one smaller still. We arrived.

The journey began months, even years earlier. I decided to see if questions I held my entire life could be answered. Turns out, they can, and because I took a risk and drove into the storm, my life forever changed...definitely for the better. 

I'm thankful for taking those risks and for those who took them with me. I'm thankful for the people I met after driving through the rain, the wind, the hail, the many many miles. I'm thankful for the journey, for the destination, for the results. 

It was a beautiful, wonderful weekend.
