Scary? Nahhh

The past week has been a whirlwind.  Seriously.  New carpet was installed in all of the bedrooms.  We signed with a realtor.  Bathroom remodel was completed.  We have been unloading stuff like crazy because this is happening and happening soon.  Relocating your entire life takes a massive family effort and the Waitley family rocks.  Seriously. 
Official moving boxes.  Nothing can go in totes or plastic containers in the shipping container as they tend to crack!

People ask us if we are nervous about living on a volcano.  Simple answer, no.  Did we avoid Missouri because of it's tornado history?  Did we avoid Northern Idaho knowing that we would be buried in massive snow for half the year?  No way.  We went where we were called, where we were supposed to be for that season.  If the whole island blows, at least we will be where we are called and we will go out living in our paradise.

Want to know what is more scary than living on a volcano?  Living a life that isn't the life you are supposed to be living.  That is seriously scary and soul sucking.  Know what else is more scary than living on a volcano?  Having your children tell you that it feels like they have been living in a single parent home for a very long time.  Sorry doesn't even come close to healing the wounds that have festered for the past few years.  Want to know what brings healing?  Taking a leap of faith into the life that you are called to live and finally living, truly living, your calling; truly living your destiny.  The wounds have already begun the heal.  That makes my heart happy.

We aren't scared; we are ready.  We are willing to make sacrifices like living on a volcano as we have seen scary, we have lived scary, and it doesn't even compare to the possible environmental factors we may face.  I leave you with a song.  Check it out, you will not be disappointed.  Mike Love is an amazingly talented guy that speaks to my soul.  It is my new theme song, mantra, you could say.  So, Let the healing begin...


Mahalo,
Judy
