Real quick… the hubs and I went to the Lehigh Gorge yesterday in Pennsylvania. It is near Jim Thorpe, PA and it is truly captivating. Nature – all of it – is captivating. I sat on a rock by a waterfall yesterday and just listened for a good five minutes. Those are the moments that re-center me.
So surreal.
Nature helps me in so many ways. It is no wonder I am kind of sad today. Sometimes, when I am out in nature, I kind of realize I am not being true to myself when I go back to life on life’s terms. I am not living up to my potential. I am living for others, which can be okay at times – when people depend on us. But, my kids are grown.
What the hell am I doing with my life? Could I be going through a mid-life crisis at 45? Or am I just outgrowing my shell? What is the next step? My husband and I have been talking about moving to Arizona.
Is that in the cards?
Stay tuned… ❤

Hi there. I just googled Taos, and it looks beautiful. I think I’ll do some research. It never occurred to me to consider New Mexico. Thank you so much for helping me look outside of the box.
