Life Changes

     Life is all about changes. I remember when I was young and lived in the same house for a long time. Then we moved to another place 2 blocks away, and I lived there for ages. Then college dorms, apartments in Salem, OR, and Pasadena, CA, Houston, TX, all the time trying to find myself. Marriage, children, missions ... traveling and moving. We lived in Indiana the longest: 12 years. Now I've been in this place 10 years, doing the same job.
     The landscape is shifting again, as we deal with my husband's deteriorating disease,  my own health issues, and slowing down some. Where is all this change headed?
     I feel like I am just figuring out my life ... why some things happened to me, what I have been trying to fix, how my past has formed my present, what I really need and enjoy in life. What I want to be and do when I grow up! As some psychologists say, I'm finally learning to become a "human being" rather than a "human doing."
     I hope you did that already.
