I had to ask myself, why haven't I been blogging? I have completely abandoned my blog. It's something I wanted to keep up with to document our life, and then I realized... at this moment in time, "our life" isn't exactly what I want it to be. We are newlyweds and apart. RC isn't with me, and hasn't been since 6 days after our wedding [check that! since May 21st]. I spent a wonderful honeymoon with him, and then the Army took him away. We are newlyweds and apart. This isn't what I want our life to be, but in this moment, this IS what our life is. I can't put it on hold. Life is not perfect, and never will be perfect. There will probably be a rare few moments where my life is "presentable" for the blog world, and that's okay.
So here I am blog world! Here is my often messy but ALWAYS beautiful life.
"You're life is right now! It's not later!
It's not in that of retirement. It's not when the lover gets here.
It's not when you've moved into the new house. It's not when you get the better job.
Your life is right now.
It will always be right now.
You might as well decide to start enjoying your life right now,
because it's not going to get better than right now-until it gets better right now!"
-Esther Hicks
