Dear God,
I lead such a blessed existence. I don’t know why you are so good to me, or how my life factors into the grand design, but I am so glad and grateful for my time in this gorgeous, glorious universe of yours.
Thank you for your tangible presence throughout this month, and especially over the past few days. Time and time again, I have seen you in the faces and actions of those around me. Don’t think I haven’t noticed.
As you well know, I am currently facing one of the biggest decisions of my life. (Twenty years from now, the previous statement may read melodramatic and trivial, but, in this moment, it could not be more meaningful or true.) Commit to another year of unfathomable curiosity, change, and challenge, or head for the nearest and dearest green grass of home?
Never one to make a quick decision, this dilemma is, without question, resulting in the most excruciatingly extended list of pros and cons I’ve yet to write.
Long story short, friend, if you have any grace or guidance to give, I am all ears.
Until then, I remain most gratefully yours,
Echo
P.S. Happy belated birthday!
