I have been in Texas almost 3 weeks. With every day that passes New York slips further and further away. With that comes an amazing feeling of peace. I feel as if I have shed my skin, like a snake does. I am so content here that I almost can't believe that this is really my life. I think perhaps I spent far too many years being sad and somehow had forgotten (or maybe never knew?) how to be happy.
I absolutely love this city! It is so beautiful, so quirky, so friendly, and so filled with music! I have been riding the bus and walking around as much as possible. Everywhere I go I am seeing something new or talking to someone new. I feel as if the city has opened it's arms and embraced me, welcoming me home.
Yes, this is home. I know, without a doubt in my mind, that this is the place I am supposed to be. I realize that Austin & I are on our honeymoon here, and I am realistic enough to know that not everything will be perfect. But God! I am so very happy to be here. What a blessing this decision has been.
