Somewhere between there and here

I am definitely somewhere between there and here. I don't exactly know where I am, just where I am going. These words are the summary of my thoughts that have occupied me for the last 8 years. Tonight, I drove around after taking care of the purpose of my trip to Virginia. It was drizzling, about 40 degrees F. I just needed to drive. I just needed to drive. My thoughts have been quite heavy as of late. Many big decisions lay in front of me. Decisions I was put on this Earth to answer...decisions I have waited many years to make. A beginning and an end. The yin and yang are upon me. Fortunate are those who recognize such freedoms. I am fortunate in so many ways...my family, my friends, my health, my ability to change the world around. With such decisions, of which do not always need to be discussed in specifics, come consequences or should I say potential consequences. To paraphrase a favorite philosophical quote: it is not always what we should expect out of life but sometimes what life expects out of us...
