It's funny how life unfolds. Now, my Mom would have asked if I mean "funny, sad" or "funny, haha". Maybe it's some of each.
When you walk down that aisle it doesn't necessarily end at the altar. It is one step of many, down the aisle, out of the "church", around the block, across the state. Sometimes "I do" is a gentle embrace, sometimes it is a wild celebration. Sometimes it's being dragged kicking and screaming to that new place in life.
It is about finding your way. We've had a lot of that with getting married, selling a house, moving to a new city, starting new jobs. It's been harder than I thought to make new friends. But I did ask the receptionist at the chiropractor if she'd like to have coffee sometime. Life requires big and little leaps of faith. She said yes, by the way.
Guess when you look hard enough you find those second chances and new beginnings. It is just a matter of baby stepping your way through those walks of life.
