Many of you who know me and read my blog know that my husband and I are going through some changes in our lives right now – changes that we know will ultimately be for the better, but changes that also come with some uncharted territory which can be pretty scary.
Scary, until one thing happens along the new path that makes us realize we are moving in the right direction. It’s kind of like God’s way of saying, “It’s going to be ok” – as if all of this was meant to be.
Yesterday, my husband received the first sign and I think if you asked him, he would agree that this new path was all meant to be. So this post is dedicated to my husband, the man I chose to spend the rest my life with – no matter where we land, we are on this path together.
The song “Home” from my favorite American Idol Phillip Phillips really hits close to home for me personally so I would like to dedicate these lyrics to my husband – and remind him that I will be by his side every single step of the way and I will continue to make this place his home.
“Hold on…to me as we go
As we roll down, this unfamiliar road
And although this wave is stringin’ us along
Just know you’re not alone
Cause’ I’m gonna make this place your home
Settle down…
It’ll all be clear
Don’t pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
Trouble, it might drag you down
If you get lost
You can always be found
Just know you’re not alone
Cause’ I’m gonna make this place your home.”
Beautiful Heather and what a strong bond you have, it shows right through your words.
I agree that change can be a little bit scary. But like you said it’s going to be ok. I think it’s great that you’re being supportive of your husband in the mist of everything that’s happening. Home is important, it’s where the heart is!
This is so sweet it actually made me all teary at work. That song hits home for me too. Not only do I adore Phillip Phillips but it really makes you realize that no matter where life takes you, you will make it your home and will stick by each other. Now I am going to think of you every time I hear it.
That is so sweet. I’ve always told my husband that the only reason I’ve been able to do all these things that seem so brave to other people is because I’ve had him by my side. I would never been half so brave on my own. Change is so much easier to go through with someone you love next to you.
This is lovely. Without a supportive partner, what do we have?
You and your husband are very lucky to have each other! Your love is beautiful.
Thinking of you and sending hugs, my dear! xo
So beautiful my friend.xo
Craig and I are in a similar place with changes coming and being nervous and unsure. It’s scary and exiting but like you said, knowing we’re in it together gives me comfort.
Ohmyheart, lovely. Pure lovely.
