Bridge Out

Non progredi est regredi. To not go forward is to go backwards.

Life brings all sorts of surprises. Kind of like when you're driving down the road and then BAM! all the sudden the bridge that was there suddenly isn't? Yeah. Bet you weren't expecting that!
And the thing is, you can't get across that way anymore. There is just no way... unless your car sprouts wings that is.
The bridge is gone.

Now you have a choice.
You can say, "Hey, the bridge is out. Guess the trip is over," and then turn around and go home.

OR

You can say, "Hmmmmm, well that was an unexpected obstacle. I guess I'm going to be going another way."

The difference is that one person goes forward and one does not. And the person who did NOT go forward ended up going backwards.

Well, I've encountered a missing bridge in my journey. I thought it was there. But it wasn't. I am determined to make the most of it and to go forward. That means that I will have to turn and go another way. It appears that the road is now leading me to Washington state. Really, not a place I'd thought I'd ever live.

Come along and see how things play out! I'd love the company! :) This is going to be quite the adventure! Who knows where this journey is going to take us!
