It's About Love

A beautiful quote sent to me by my husband....

"Don`t walk in front of me, I may not follow. Don`t walk behind me, I may not lead. Just walk beside me and be my friend." -Albert Camus

This speaks profoundly to our marriage and what we desire but it also speaks to our life.

When I think about what I want in life, I really don't desire to lead or to follow anyone - what I truely desire is to walk with people through this journey we call life. To come along side those I love and to be a support, an encourager, a shoulder to cry on, a friend to laugh with, a buddy to drink with, etc....

If I can journey with people in this world, if I can walk among humanity and contribute positively to people's lives, then I will consider my life full and successful. To me it's not about money, fame, career success ... it's about love.
