Life Changing

Sometimes I forget how much my life is about to change, but sometimes it hits me like a freight train: I am about to get married. Every aspect of my life is changing: I will be a wife, I am moving to a new city, I moving to a new house, I am changing churches, I am changing professions, I am leaving behind my family, I am leaving behind my friends, and I will be living with someone new. With the simple phrase, "I do," pretty much all of my life is changing. Never before have I felt such an urgency to rely on God. He is the only way I am going to seamlessly transition into this new stage of my life.

I was planning on ending my vegetarian lifestyle the past few months, but part of me wants to hold on to it. I have been a vegetarian for 9.5 years, and it has become such a part of me. In a time of all this change, I really don't want to change something else...I feel like I would be losing part of me. Stopping my vegetarian lifestyle would be easier for Phil & me: I could cook one meal for both of us, but I don't think I am ready to voluntarily change something else. I don't know...maybe I am.

As of tonight, I have 41 days left. Sometimes, I really don't know how I am going to do it. I still have my job (which I love, but it is life consuming!), a week of camp, Hadassah, and so much more. If you go to Souls Harbor, please take pity on me. If I seem distracted or disoriented, I probably am. Just pat me on the back and smile.

I am excited about all of my life changes, but I am wary too...I really don't know what life holds.
