We Walk by Faith NOT by Sight …. 2Cor 5:7   July 5th already.  Wow, yikes, exciting, oh dear, awesome, amazing, nervous, anticipating, butterflies, bitter sweet, laughter, love, joy – so many words to describe the range of emotions that I have experienced this past month.  If anybody finds a week or so randomly laying about, please send it over.  I think I misplaced it somewhere. What a wonderful last month in Canada and in the USA.  I have had the wonderful blessing of spending so much time with friends and family.  My ‘to do’ list was fairly small this month compared to previous (I guess that’s what happens when you tackle the big list with vengeance to get it all done).  I have hiked around Nelson, Vancouver, the Capilano Suspension Bridge; kayaked on the lake; rode the KLR several times.  I was able to have so many meals and coffees with friends and family and say ciao – it’s only two years and it’ll go quick.  I’ve been enjoying the different flavours of spice and even managed to get in some delicious sushi feeds.  One more of those and then I should be good for a couple of years.  There has been a lot of tears.  Bittersweet tears of sadness of what was supposed to be in our minds, and joyful […]

Serving and loved in Argentina. One year ago today I was in the middle of my travels. Moving from Nelson,BC to Bariloche,Argentina. From the far North to the far South Max always said. My remaining material possessions boxed in storage, klrs and kayaks left with friends, 4 suitcases with me. Wow, a year already. Learning castellano, adapting to a new culture, learning/accepting and walking forward in this new life.

I still don’t agree with the fact that my best friend isn’t here to share these memories but I get to see the impact he had. I get to see how God used our time here before. I get to honor Max. I get the opportunity to wholeheartedly say Yes Lord, your will not mine. Its not always easy to do this, but I am so grateful for friends and family, all around the world. And I am especially grateful for my family here, walking alongside me, sometimes picking me up, but mostly for living life together. Here’s to being home.              Report This Post
