18) There’s No Place Like Home
Home. There’s no place like it Dorothy said in “The Wizard of Oz.”
I’ve been away for 5 days on a personal growth retreat, and while that was a blessing it’s as big a blessing to come home.
Sleep in my own bed. Hug my wife. Pick on my 18 year-old son and him pick on me. I even missed the cat.
Get back into my normal routine.
Being away gives me a deeper appreciation for what I often take for granted.
I thankfully look back on my time in the Red River Gorge, yet with curiosity ponder moving forward with my life.
With each day I find gratitude in more of life’s experiences.
Today I am grateful for home and all that entails. The good, the annoying, and the things yet to come.
