And, a special welcome to two more Followers since last week!
A few months ago, Greg and I moved from a region we'd lived in most of our lives to another part of Tennessee. The move was not an easy one. We had to leave behind the familiar, and our loved ones.
Although things seemed strange at first, we adjusted, and learned to adapt to our new environment. In fact, we now believe we did the right thing. Greg's career move was a really good one, and new opportunities have opened up for my art, writing, and organizing business.
There's a ton of things to see and do where we live now.
We've met a lot of new people, and we've made friends along the way.
Our family members are only a phone call or an email away. Besides, we get back to our old area every few weeks to visit and to shop at local stores.
Right now, we're living in a rental house with a beautiful view of a farm with its array of farm animals. (Better than TV, and our cats love watching all the animals, including peacocks!)
We have definitely made some positive changes, and we plan on even more to come!
We need to move to a house with land of our own, closer to where Greg works, maybe even to another nearby town.
This blog post was inspired by another blog, River Cliff Cottage ( http://www.rivercliffcottage.com ), written by fellow blogger and new friend, Eva Beaule who lives in an area of Southwest Virginia near where I grew up.
I'm enjoying reading about her life in that rural part of Virginia which she finally came to terms with and decided she loved. With words and pictures, she describes (sometimes humorously) her day-to-day activities and her beautiful house which is a work-in-progress. I appreciate the fact that she's sharing her experiences which include the changes she's going through as she lives her life. It's good that we can learn from each other along life's journey.
Nothing ever stays the same. Change is inevitable. We can either fight change, or we can go with the flow. If we look for the good in every situation, we can always find it.
Positive thought: Every change is a golden opportunity.
Thanks for visiting! Until next Sunday, Becky
