The Single Life to The Simple Life
June 15, 2008|Comments (none)

It’s so strange to look at pictures taken of me the summer before I met Josh. In those photos, I see the girl who didn’t know if she would ever find true love or if that true love would love her in return. They show a young woman who is just about to meet the love of her life. Isn’t that wild? When that photo was snapped — I had no clue that in a few months my entire life would change. Yup. That’s before I got my simple on. That’s before I found my path.
I wouldn’t want to go back. Nope. I’ll never miss being single. I’ll never miss being a child either. To quote Hope Floats: “Childhood is what you spend the rest of your life trying to overcome… beginnings are scary, endings are usually sad, but it’s the middle that counts the most…Just give hope a chance to float up and it will.” True that.
Did I ever mention that I am terrified of bridges and tunnels? There are several names for it Gephydrophobia, Gephyrophobia, and Gephysrophobia. Do you have any idea how terrified I was to cross the Hoover Dam? Ask me when the bridges in my area were last inspected. Go on. Ask. Guess who checked it out before packing a single box to move here?
