Just two nights ago, I was sitting on the back patio listening to music (Legends of the Fall soundtrack...one of my favs), considering a move our family may take later this year. We might leave the mountains of Colorado for the cornfields of Indiana (where we're originally from).<br /><br />I get somewhat depressed at the thought of leaving the mountains--I connect with God differently here; He's grown my writing here--but God reminded me of the mountains I've yet to see, beyond this life and into eternity. Not sure if He's calling us away from Colorado yet, but if so, I'll see mountains again, in this life or the next. And if we're to move to Indiana, He has a plan for my writing there as well. That put a smile on my face.Brock S.
