After much discussion with "my girls" I think I am finally coming to terms with my impending move to Washington. I love this island. I love my friends. But reality is...K and I have a relationship that will long outlast the distance that separates us and Okinawa will always be here. Besides...I'm ready for this change. It's time...
So now the real work begins. My curb is quickly bearing the brunt of our 4 years on this rock. I toss virtually everything when we move. I simply can't stand to have all this clutter fill my life. My dear friend J told me this weekend that moving is the best way to cleanse our lives...not only physically, but emotionally. She'll never know the volumes that comment spoke in me. Those words are what made this bearable. They are what opened my eyes to the POSSIBILITIES that lie ahead. Not just the loss.
Thanks woman! Your wisdom during this time (and all others for that matter) has been invaluable! Safe travels to you and yours. You will be missed!

Thank you to J. She's right you know. Every thing can and is an adventure in life. New surroundings can bring new treasures and memories never die. Even if K isn't with you she always will be. Remember Berdene and Cody? They are both physically gone but "we" still laugh at all the times we had, some things last forever.
Hey girl, Hang in there. You've done this before and I am sure it won't be the last time..:0
On the plus side, I can call you more.. I have free long distance for the states. LOL
Love ya, Beau
I figure that we will end up where ever we are sent and there will be good and bad times either way...we'll just make the most of whatever adventure comes next. And hopefully will get to see some good friends where ever we land.
