July 6, 2020 I have been counting down the days to this very day feeling as if it couldn’t come any sooner. Today my best friend was supposed to jump on a plane say “see you later Brazil” and head to her second home, Sparta Michigan. That’s how we had planned this day to go, but God had other plans. Instead she is still in Brazil and I am still here in Sparta waiting for her to come a different day, month or year.
I believe that God has a plan and this was not part of his plan yet and it’s not my job to know the plan but to follow and trust him. I’m forever thankful for technology. It has made it possible for me to stay in close contact with all of my family worldwide.
I’m telling you this as a reminder to not lose hope and that you are not alone. Many many many of us are having to cancel/change plans. Sports teams are trying to figure out a new normal, ect. With all of the disappointment you may be feeling reminded yourself of the things that have not been cancelled such as nature, communication, most importantly icecream shops! Find hope, even if you are over 5,000 away like me and Maria there is still hope and happiness. ❤️
